Let’s be real—many of us will book a wax, hair or nail appointment before we think about calling the gyno. But, today’s World Health Day and in honor of that, here’s your reminder that your vagina deserves a check-in. Vaginal health isn’t a back-burner priority because when your body whispers and you ignore it, it eventually screams. Here are 5 signs it’s time to stop stalling and book that appointment with your gyno—ASAP:
1. Spotting Between Periods or Bleeding After Sex – This could signal cervical irritation, fibroids, or something more serious. Don’t wait. Get answers and peace of mind.
2. You’re Navigating Birth Control, Fertility, or Menopause — Whether you’re planning a pregnancy or managing hot flashes, your gyno should be your go-to, not your last resort.
3. You’re Sexually Active and Haven’t Had an STI Test – Routine screenings = self-respect. Stay safe, stay empowered.
4. It’s Been Over a Year Since Your Last Visit — Even if everything feels fine, preventative care like Pap smears and breast exams matter. Don’t ghost your gyno.
5. Sex Feels… Off – Pain, dryness, or discomfort during sex is not “just how it is.” Your pleasure matters. Your body should be a wet, welcoming place—not a mystery maze of discomfort.
I didn’t add vaginal infections because between 2010 and 2015 I stayed in the doctor’s office. Recurrent BV and yeast infections had me in a nonstop cycle—7 to 10 days on BV meds with no drinking or sex, only for the antibiotics to give me a yeast infection 🤯 Cue another 7 to 10 days on antifungals with the same restrictions. That merry-go-round had me searching for something better. That’s when I found the miracle mineral that gave birth to V Vitamins - which is a faster, safer and more effective treatment. As a Libra, I believe in balance. Sometimes you need your gyno. Other times, you can put healing in your own hands. Just remember: the best care is both natural and professional.
Here’s Your Challenge: 📅 Book your gyno appointment this week—even if it’s months out. 📲 Screenshot it, Post it to your story and tag us @VVitamins, so we can cheer you on. And if you need a natural reset while you wait? Try V Vitamins. Your coochie will thank you. 💗
