Doctors in UK Forced to Tell Women Not to Put Ice Lollies in Their Vaginas to Cool Down
In the UK, heat waves tend to bring out even more stupid behavior that that which is already rampant.
Amidst record temperatures across the country, doctors are now telling young women not to put ice lollies in their vaginas to cool them down.
Yes, really.
“My advice would be to avoid any foreign bodies in the vagina for risk of infection,” said gynaecologist Dr Shree Datta. “I would suggest loose cotton underwear and avoiding tight clothing to prevent any irritation and dermatitis developing.”
That sage advice was echoed by Dr Sarah Welsh, the co-founder of HANX condom brand, who cautioned women that putting ice lollies in their private parts could alter the natural pH of the vagina and cause further problems if the object was to break up inside.
“There are many things that should never go near a vagina and ice lollies are up there,” said Welsh. “The ice can stick to the delicate skin of the vagina and cause real trauma and damage.”
Why such advice should even be necessary is too depressing to consider.
Why not just put the ice block in a condom first? That would stop the sticking, I find it strange that the HANX spokesperson didn’t suggest that.
They are confused over there- a popsicle goes in your mouth dummies.
Hmm..
“Doctors are telling …”
One person quoted, but lacking statistical support.
Manufactured story?
Actually yes… it must be a completely manufactured piece of bullshit. In the whole of the UK there might be one SLG stupid enough to shove an iceblock into her front bum…. but no more than one, surely.
Someone with connections to either newspaper or a blog heard about this and turned it into the story that we have here.
Utter bullshit – and not very amusing bullshit either.
Front bum? Bloody hell that could be confusing.
“Thanks for keeping my popsicle warm” lol
A cold shower with a friend will cool you down and save the planet.
You are friendlier than me lol
I was going to say words fail me but it’s Britain so entirely to be expected. I suppose you got this story from the front page of the Daily Fail?
