To clarify, I do NOT mean douching.
Unless your doc tells you to, probably don't douche. (I am not a doctor, nor your doctor. I don't know your medical records, personal history, nor needs and preferences.)
So like, this really, REALLY depends on your exact genital / urinary anatomy here -- and I'm probably using the wrong words since I'm untrained too, which won't help.
But:
some people (not always women / and not all women) have a clitoral hood.
That's some skin (?) that sits over the.. head (?) of the clit, which is the super sensitive nub underneath / below.
And the urethra is ... different, but very near each other.
Unless fistula? a flesh wormhole that was not evolved to be there.
[I need to research that again cuz I only know it as a birth complication, or when certain enclosing tissues go weird.]
NOT A DOCTOR! If that wasn't bloody obvious. anyway NSFW graphic of pale person's vulva, labelled with anatomy terms https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_reproductive_system#Vulva
