Douching postpartum is generally not recommended, as it can disrupt the natural balance of bacteria in the vagina, potentially leading to infections and delaying the healing process. 

➜ After childbirth, the body needs time to recover, and the vagina naturally cleanses itself, so using a douche can introduce unnecessary risks. 

➜ Instead, focus on gentle, external cleansing with warm water during showers or using a mild, unscented soap if needed.
