Monsoon leads to a surge in the number of water-borne diseases, allergies and infections caused by increasing humidity, accumulated water and constant dampness around. Among the common diseases, vaginal infections are some of the lesser-discussed monsoon health problems.

A number of women deal with infections in their intimate areas due to rains and humidity, especially in Mumbai, where people are exposed to different types of bacteria and contamination due to waterlogging in residential areas and crowded public transport. These irritations and unease can have a critical impact on their intimate hygiene if not addressed in time.
