What are the functions of pubic hair in women? Pubic hair is part of the body's hair structure, and because of its private location, many women are embarrassed to talk about it.

The function of female pubic hair

Pubic hair grows on the skin of the vulva and helps prevent the invasion of foreign objects and bacteria, reducing the chance of vaginal injury and infection. In addition, pubic hair helps prevent sexually transmitted diseases (STIs) transmitted through skin contact, such as genital eczema and molluscum contagiosum; pubic hair can reduce the risk of some STIs.
2. Pubic hair can help increase sexual pleasure.
A woman's pubic hair can signal sexual maturity and help attract her partner's attention and arouse sexual excitement during sex. During intercourse, pubic hair can also act as a buffer, reducing friction and potential damage to the vulva.
3. Pubic hair helps the vulva breathe.
The perineum has large and abundant sweat glands, especially in summer when there is a lot of sweating, which can easily lead to poor ventilation. Pubic hair helps with ventilation.
How should women care for their pubic hair?
1. Keep the private area dry and breathable.
Women's vulva is often moist, so it is important to pay attention to ventilation and breathability. Use panty liners less often outside of menstruation, and choose underwear with good breathability. Avoid wearing underwear that is too tight or made of materials with poor breathability.
2. Maintain appropriate exercise
Many women sit for long periods in their daily work, which can lead to pelvic congestion due to lack of exercise . This is one of the contributing factors to various gynecological diseases and also negatively affects the condition of pubic hair. Women can try to move around more during their work breaks and practice exercises such as aerobics or yoga to help improve their physical fitness and boost their immunity.
