When you are using pads or tampons, it is important to change them often. Check pads every 2 hours and change them before they get full. Change tampons at least every 4 to 8 hours. Never wear a tampon for more than 8 hours due to the risk of toxic shock syndrome. Your body has its own system for staying clean. This includes naturally occurring, healthy bacteria. Douching can kill these bacteria. It can also throw off your normal vaginal pH. Douching can increase the pH and cause harmful bacteria to grow. These products are sold as sprays and powders. They can cause BV by disrupting the natural balance between "good" and "bad" bacteria. This imbalance can also cause yeast infections. You should also avoid scented tampons and sanitary napkins. Choose unscented, chemical-free menstrual supplies. Do this after urinating and especially after defecating. Your vagina is coated with delicate mucous membranes. Bacteria from your anus can easily cause an infection if it's introduced into your vagina. Cotton and bamboo are natural materials that allow air to circulate. These materials also prevent moisture build-up, which is a major trigger for yeast infections. Avoid thongs when you are experiencing abnormal discharge, if you may have an infection, or if you are prone to infections. Also, avoid underwear made from synthetic materials, such as polyester, spandex, and nylon. It is best not to wear your underwear to bed, but if you do, then make sure that it is not too tight and it allows air to circulate. Tight jeans and trousers have the same effect as underwear made of synthetic materials. They prevent airflow and cause moisture to accumulate. If you are having abnormal discharge or dealing with an infection, then choose clothing that gives you some room between the fabric and your vulva. Bathing suits are often tight and made of synthetic materials. Throw in the added moisture from the water you were swimming in, and you have the perfect recipe for an infection. When you know you're finished swimming for the day, ditch the bathing suit immediately and hit the shower. Use only latex condoms. They form an effective barrier against infections. Avoid lambskin condoms, which are porous enough to let some harmful microorganisms through. Hormonal contraception, diaphragms, and foam prevent pregnancy, but they don't prevent diseases. Talk to your doctor or healthcare provider if you are allergic to latex. Never reuse a condom.

Summary: Change your feminine hygiene products often. Never douche. Avoid feminine deodorants. Wipe from front to back. Wear breathable underwear. Avoid "skinny jeans" during times of abnormal discharge or infection. Change out of a wet bathing suit ASAP. Use condoms during sex.

Rabbits are very intelligent animals, and are quite capable of being trained. However, unlike dogs, rabbits do not aim to please their owners and can thus be difficult to train. They do not have a natural instinct to obey, so your rabbit will not stop chewing the carpet simply because you tell him not to. Training your rabbit to stop chewing the carpet will involve not only making the carpet undesirable, but also redirecting his chewing behavior towards something more appropriate. Positive reinforcement is an important component of training your rabbit. Rewarding him when he chews on something more appropriate, through such activities as head scratches and extra petting, will help train your rabbit to stop chewing carpet. Training your rabbit to stop chewing carpet primarily involves making it undesirable or unattainable to him. One way to do this is to block his access. When your rabbit is chewing the carpet, pay attention to where he tends to chew. After identifying the problem area, find ways to keep your rabbit from that location, such as covering the area with a big piece of furniture (e.g., couch, reclining chair). If moving heavy furniture is not practical for you, place smaller objects in the area where your rabbit likes to chew. For example, cover the problem area with heavy ceramic tiles. The tiles would hold the carpet down and prevent your rabbit from getting a hold of the carpet. You can also cover the area with a cardboard box. Weigh down the box with something heavy inside, such as an empty flowerpot, so your rabbit can't push it out of the way. Place some 'digging' material (e.g., shredded newspaper or magazine) in the box to foster your rabbit's natural digging habit. Place some rugs in the problem area. Make sure the rugs are made of natural material in case your rabbit decides to chew on them. If your rabbit can't get to the carpet, he will eventually get bored and forget about the area altogether. Covering the area with different objects is a temporary solution. If you choose, cover the areas only when your rabbit is playing outside of his cage. If blocking access is not possible, you can make the carpet taste bad enough for your rabbit to stay away from that area. For example, spray bitter apple spray in your rabbit's favorite chewing location. Bitter apple spray is available at your local pet store. Ivory soap can also keep your rabbit from chewing the carpet. Your rabbit won't get sick from eating the soap, but he probably won't like the taste. Break the soap into small sections and spread it along the area of carpet where your rabbit likes to chew.

Summary: Learn about how to train a rabbit. Put furniture over the carpet. Cover the carpet with small items. Make the carpet taste bad to your rabbit.
