Clove sitz bath: what all women should know before trying it

How to prepare a sitz bath safely

The best option? Pure lukewarm water. This is what most gynecologists recommend. Fill a clean basin with 15 to 20 cm of comfortably warm water, soak for 10 to 15 minutes, then gently dry with a clean towel.

If you still wish to try a very mild clove infusion—provided there is no infection, no open wound, and no known spice allergy—here's how: infuse a single whole clove in 250 ml of boiling water for 10 minutes, strain thoroughly, then dilute in 500 ml of lukewarm water. First, test the mixture on the inside of your forearm. Any reaction? Stop immediately.
