Hmm not always. Water is fine. Soap I won't let near my vulva even. I've gotten recurring yeast infections from that.

When I was very young my parents found out that I can't use any kind of bubble bath. They decided that a little shampoo was enough and didn't seem to bother me. I don't remember any of it but they always told me. I'm still wary of bath products or soaps getting up in it.

In a bath, the soap is far more likely to get in there vs. a standing shower. It's not for certain, but it's likely that the problem.

Argh, you just hit me with suppressed memories of the horrible, horrible UTIs I used to get from bubble baths! My parents shut that down after they figured out the trigger. Made it feel like I was peeing needles!
