Unfortunately, this isn’t true. The media has spread a lot of false information about vaginal steaming that turns out to just be fabricated or incorrect. A few of the oft-repeated arguments include “doctors advise against vaginal steaming”, “there is no scientific evidence that vaginal steaming works”, “vaginal steaming could cause a PH imbalance” and “the vagina (or uterus) is a self-cleansing organ and therefore vaginal steaming is not necessary”. Not one of these statements is backed by any scientific evidence. They are based merely on speculation.
