My husband has suddenly started asking me to shave myself "down below". He says it would be "more hygienic". Is this true? And are there any health risks?
These days, quite a lot of women go in for the practice of shaving. There is actually no scientific evidence that it "more hygienic". However, there are no health risks, provided you're careful not to cut yourself with the razor. Please note that when you let the hair re-grow, you may feel very itchy for a while.
