Can I use this during pregnancy and after childbirth?

The manufacturer specifically notes that this gel is developed for times when the intimate skin may feel more delicate, including during pregnancy and after delivery. Hormonal shifts, increased blood flow, and physical changes during these periods can make the external intimate area more reactive to fragrances, high-pH cleansers, and strong surfactants. The calendula extract is included for its traditional soothing and softening role in skin care, while the lactic acid helps maintain the acidic pH that supports the area’s natural barrier.

That said, pregnancy and postpartum recovery vary widely. Some people experience heightened sensitivity, stitches, tears, or specific medical guidance that affects what’s appropriate. The product label and accompanying information advise consulting your doctor or midwife if you’re unsure whether this gel fits your personal situation. It’s a cosmetic hygiene product, not a medical device or treatment, so it doesn’t replace clinical advice or prescribed care.

If you do use it, apply only to the external intimate area, rinse well, and discontinue if you notice any discomfort, redness, or itching. Introduce it gradually — for example, every other day at first — to see how your skin responds, especially if you’re switching from a different cleanser or from water-only cleansing.
