- A total of 343 women participated, revealing that 26.5% douched in the past year, with significant links to low education, low income, unplanned pregnancies, and social influences.
- The primary motivations for douching included perceived cleanliness and infection prevention, but a higher incidence of self-reported vaginal infections was noted among those who engaged in douching, indicating potential health risks.
