#Women_and_Health PERSONAL HYGIENE IN WOMEN General personal hygiene is defined as being clean to avoid becoming offensive to others and to protect yourself and others from disease. This involves activities like bathing regularly and using deodorant to prevent body odor and brushing your teeth frequently to keep your mouth healthy and avoid bad breath. Good personal hygiene also includes covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze and washing your hands frequently to avoid transmitting germs. Special Considerations Women have some special areas to consider for personal hygiene. Those who are of reproductive age have a monthly menstrual cycle, which requires more attention to cleanliness. Protection must be changed several times a day, and showering or bathing become even more important for cleanliness and odor control. Most women wear makeup regularly, which requires special attention when cleaning the face. *A clean body and clean clothes help prevent the spread of bacteria and disease*. Ladies should follow an organized exercise program, appropriate for our physical condition, weight, age and social status. These exercises give us body agility, beauty, good health, strength and immunity to disease; this will enable them to carry out their duties effectively, and become physically stronger in carrying out their daily activities, whether as a wife, mother or student.
