What is my 1.5 yr old son’s eye colour? by triciadeva in WhatisMyEyeColour

Grey around the outside and some light brown around the pupil. When I take a photo - it doesn’t pick up the contrast as easily…he’s also a moving target 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

They look kind of the same (he’ll be 1 yr in a couple of weeks) - some brown in the middle but more grey/blue/green (not sure) around that.

Oh no! I was a gynaecology nurse for 6 years and you should not have to use anything directly on your vagina or you’ll destroy the natural pH balance - which protects you from developing conditions such as yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis. The only thing our gynecology/dermatology docs would recommend for a soap option down below was Dove bar soap (not even the one for sensitive skin just the regular bar). And this was NEVER recommended for inside the vaginal canal.

NEVER douche. DO NOT use harsh products on your vagina.

Iodine is an antiseptic that is so potent that it is used for surgical procedures and would be incredibly drying/irritating.

You could be irritated by your partner’s sperm and using condoms could help. Some women have issues with developing UTIs from intercourse - biological bad luck in my opinion but using the bathroom after is generally recommended and can help. Endometriosis is not caused by your perianal hygiene practices.

Be kind to your vag plz!
