He advised against shaving pubic hair, highlighting some of the advantages of pubic hair and the dangers of shaving.

He said some shaving creams are proteolytic, meaning they dissolve proteins provoking infections.

"Do not encourage shaving pubic hair. Pubic hair should be kept as clean as possible, especially post-coitus. If one has a problem like an infection and must shave the hair, they can shave using a pair of scissors, not razors," he advised.

Adding:

"Do not apply shaving creams, foams or soaps because they will go in and spoil the PH. The creams are made up of many chemicals, and some of them can cause an anaphylactic reaction. Once the PH is lost, there will be an infection and it will be chronic and will bother the person."
