Can I use TUSHY to clean up after number 1 AND number 2? Will I get a UTI?Updated 2 years ago

F*ck YES to cleaning your hole self. F*ck NO to getting a UTI.

TUSHY is as much a vag spa as it is a butt blaster. It’s great for staying fresh during your period and for washing up before/after sex. Sup, spring flower?

Now you’re thinking, “Neat, is this bidet spraying poop water from my butt up into my lady garden?” Water is the most effective way to remove doody and even works to prevent UTIs—there’s a reason bidets are the preferred cleaning method worldwide. Compare it to what happens in the shower when you wash your backside. 

Our super smart doctor friend John Cluley, M.D. says that, “any trivial amount of bacteria the urethra is exposed to as a result of using a bidet is far outweighed by the improved hygiene you have by using the bidet in the first place”—AKA washing with water is the only way to shoo that poo. If in doubt, think of Amal Clooney in her Italian villa spraying her butthole. 

Pro tip: Wash the vulva area by using the nozzle adjuster and leaning forward to get a proper clean. Be careful when turning your pressure knob as the sensation can get intense if the water pressure is too high, especially around the clitoral area. (Honey, that’s your fifth time tonight using the bidet tonight…) Once complete, dry yourself thoroughly with your preferred drying product—Bamboo Bum Towels, Bamboo TP or our Bamboo Tissues!
