It actually is. In the urology department, there are many striking examples.

Numerous women hover over the toilet seat for the same reason some people use toilet
seat covers � they believe it is highly unhygienic to sit down and touch the seat. (Toilet
seat covers are porous though, and cannot keep microscopic organisms from slipping
though.)

The problem is that your pelvic muscles need to be relaxed during peeing, or No. 2.

In time, hovering can contribute to pelvic organ prolapse issues � women walking
around with a fully prolapsed uterus due to serial hovering happens more often than you
would be inclined to think. To add insult to injury, hovering often also leads to
incomplete emptying of the bladder, and ultimately to an increased chance of urinary
tract infections (UTIs).[1]

The standard question my girlfriend (who is a urologist) asks to female patient who have
recurring UTIs is: �Do you hover over the toilet seat ?� (The answer often us YES.)

Other typical issues include cleaning down there with your average shower gel: the
acidity of these body washes is all wrong, and often leads to bad genital hygiene,
irritation, yeast infections and what have you. And if you ever smelled bacterial
vaginosis, you know what I�m talking about.

What you should use would be gentle, soap-free, fragrance-free, and respects the
physiological pH of the genital area (which is slightly acidic). Or even better: use only
plain water.

So please stop hovering over toilet seats, and stop using your average strongly
perfumed shower gels down there altogether: you might feel clean at first �

But you will never forget the reek afterwards.
