A gut health expert explains why wiping more than three times can be harmful

Here’s how to do it:

  1. Start with a light contraction (20%),  as if you were holding in gas, gently
  2. Climb to 50%: feel the sphincter begin to close
  3. Strengthen to 80%: Squeeze harder for two seconds
  4. Complete at 100%: Fully contract for three seconds, then release

This mini-exercise allows you to naturally remove the last residue,  without increasing friction . And the results are there: less irritation, less paper,  and real comfort on a daily basis.

Adopt the right approach: more comfort, less paper

Since some people have adopted this method, the feedback has been positive: irritations are reduced, toilet paper consumption is significantly lower,  and people simply feel better.  In addition to being beneficial for intimate comfort, this habit is also  good news for your wallet and the environment.

What if that’s not enough?

If, despite this method, you still feel the need to wipe more than three times, it may be useful to consult a healthcare professional. This may be related to:

  • Hemorrhoids or local irritation
  • Scars or a tender area around the anus
  • A disorder of sphincter function

In any case, if the discomfort lasts more than a few days,  it is advisable to speak to your doctor.  There are suitable solutions, and  there is no harm in consulting  for this type of problem.

In summary

With just one simple change in habit, your bathroom trips can become smoother, faster, and kinder to your body. So, ready to try contractions before you reach for the paper?
