Throughout the history of the internet, we have come across a variety of trends. Some are fun to do, while others require some use of polished skills. But, among all these fun and challenging trends, there are also those types that are downright bizarre. The type that not only sounds crazy but is crazier to do in practice. And one such trend that is equally baseless and unique is the V-steaming trend. For the people who are not aware of it, let us tell you, the V here stands for your vagina. So basically, yes, the trend is actually Vaginal Steaming. Or you might have also heard about it by its other name, yoni steaming. However, no matter from which angle you look at this trend, it still sounds stupid and risky. And that might be because it actually is all that.
So, what is Vaginal Steaming?
It’s quite self-explanatory. Yes, it is just steaming for your vagina. Something that is often common with the face. However, it has been replaced with a vagina for this case. All you do is sit over some hot water so that your vagina can get some steam. The water that is used for it is mixed with some herbs for better effect. People believe that it is good for your vagina and other related areas like menstruation discomfort, pregnancy, cramps, digestive system, and what not. However, there is absolutely no scientific proof for the same. In fact, the process can actually harm your genital area by dis-balancing the PH balance of your vagina. Cases of people getting hurt or burning themselves in the process have also been in the headlines. So, in a nutshell, the trend is as bizarre as it sounds. And is definitely not recommended by experts or doctors for whatsoever claimed positive effects.
How did the trend start?
Celebrities often carry this really heavy influencing power that can do wonders. One such influence was seen for this trend as well. At first, it was Gwyneth Paltrow that brought highlight to the uses of this bizarre practice. The rest was done by celebs joining in, like Chrissy Teigen sharing her post while doing the trend. The trend took to people real soon and became popular in no time. Not only that, but this practice is something that is not so new to a few places like Asia, Africa, and such.
Should you try this?
Definitely NOT! Just because it has the term ‘trend’ on it does not makes it sensible. In fact, this can be very dangerous. Your private area is not for such experiments. This makes such things a risk for the vagina. So this trend is surely a no-no!
