Conscious Coconut Oil is a natural alternative for optimal vaginal health. Coconut Oil is able to moisturize, strengthen, soothe and hydrate your skin because of it's unique medicinal properties.
Vaginal dryness can affect women at any age, often causing discomfort, itching, or burning. Raw, organic coconut oil offers a safe, natural way to restore comfort and hydration without synthetic chemicals or fragrances.
Rich in medium-chain fatty acids, it penetrates deeply to moisturize and nourish delicate tissue, supporting elasticity and overall skin health. Its thicker, longer-lasting coating provides superior relief compared to water or gel-based products, while its soothing properties help calm irritation and promote a balanced, healthy environment.
Coconut oil is rich in medium-chain fatty acids—particularly lauric acid and caprylic acid—that have potent antimicrobial and antifungal properties. Studies show it can help combat certain bacteria, viruses, and yeast, including Candida albicans, the primary cause of most yeast infections. These fatty acids can penetrate the yeast’s cell walls, disrupting their structure and ultimately killing the cells, which helps reduce fungal growth and recurrence.
Yeast infections are often uncomfortable, itchy, and notoriously difficult to resolve. Coconut oil offers a certified organic, food-grade alternative to conventional, chemical-laden products—gently supporting feminine health while nourishing sensitive skin.
Behind every healthy vagina is a crew of hard-working vaginal flora bacteria. Similar to gut bacteria, the microbes in our vaginas can keep us healthy or make us sick. Studies suggest that coconut oil's abundance of lauric acid, which holds antibacterial properties, may help your vagina ward off infections.
Published in the Journal of Medicinal Food, researchers found that fatty acids in coconut oil slow the growth of Clostridium difficile, a common cause of diarrhea which, suggests that coconut oil may be helpful for regular urinary tract infections.
When using coconut oil for UTIs, apply it liberally to the external genital area which can help with symptoms such as burning.
Anything that affects your flora can disrupt your vagina’s natural balance: antibiotics, chemicals, hormones, unfamiliar bacteria on shared adult toys or on a new partner’s skin. Coconut oil does not have a PH, however coconut oil has an "acidity" value. This acidity value could potentially sway your vagina's natural balance in a good direction due to its effect on our bodies' microbes. Nobody can say for sure what coconut oil will do to your own specific vaginal balance so you will need to test throughout your first days and weeks of application.
Not only does organic coconut oil reduce inflammation & soothe your vulva, it's antibacterial properties help damaged tissue regenerate and heal.
Researchers found that wounds treated with coconut oil healed much faster, antioxidant enzyme activities increased, and there was a higher turnover of collagen.
Moreover, coconut oil is also a good source of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that supports skin health and helps promote rapid healing.
Coconut oil is a gentle yet effective remedy for ingrown hairs thanks to its natural anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. The high lauric acid content helps calm redness, swelling, and irritation caused by trapped hairs, while also fighting bacteria that can lead to infection. Its rich concentration of medium-chain fatty acids deeply hydrates the skin, softening the area and making it easier for hairs to break through the surface naturally. Regular use can also help prevent future ingrown hairs by keeping the skin smooth, moisturized, and free from buildup that can clog follicles.
Vaginal odor is common and can change with your cycle, hygiene habits, and daily activities. While some shifts are normal, harsh chemical products can irritate delicate skin and upset your natural pH—often making things worse.
Raw, organic coconut oil is a gentle, plant-based alternative. Rich in lauric and caprylic acids, it naturally helps reduce odor-causing bacteria and yeast while soothing and moisturizing sensitive skin. Free from synthetic fragrances and irritants, it supports a healthy, balanced environment—safely and effectively.
Coconut oil’s smooth, silky texture and long-lasting moisture make it an effective, natural alternative to synthetic personal lubricants. Rich in medium-chain fatty acids like lauric acid, it not only reduces friction but also helps protect and nourish delicate skin. Its natural antimicrobial and antifungal properties may help support a healthy vaginal environment, making it a gentle choice for those prone to irritation or imbalances.
Unlike many commercial lubricants that contain parabens, glycerin, or other additives that can disrupt vaginal pH, certified organic, food-grade coconut oil is free from synthetic chemicals and fragrances. It hydrates while it soothes, offering comfort, glide, and peace of mind.
*A Few Notes. People using latex-based contraceptive devices should avoid coconut oil as a lubricant. This is because the oil can break down the latex and making them less effective. Please note that anyone with an allergy or sensitivity to coconut or coconut oil should avoid using coconut oil topically or through ingestion.
