Q: My mucous membranes are weak and I easily get vaginal infections…?

A:A: Your genitals are very sensitive to humidity, so you need to be careful of them drying out. We recommend oronine cream for people with weak mucous membranes (the cream is very good for this purpose). Just be careful that you don't apply too much because that can lead to the growth of bacteria!

Q: What about a red, shiny penis…?

A:A: It might be caused by something like athlete's foot or another microorganism (such as staphylococcus).

Q: What can I do before work or in my daily life to protect myself?

A:A: When you brush your teeth before work, don't brush your gums too hard or you might cause small cuts or abrasions. Do any shaving the day before (shaving with a razor causes your blood vessels to be more exposed). Lead a healthy daily life, and be sure to eat nutritious meals (including lots of vegetables!) and to get plenty of sleep.




 Don't gargle with too much Isodine (an iodine-based disinfectant), because that can also weaken your mucous membranes!
