The countless claims of alleged adult-rated use of oak galls seem to be true. By the way, oak galls are round balls on oak trees that come from a species of wasp called the gall wasp. They inject their larva – this is sounding nastier by the sentence – into leaf buds, the larva secretes chemicals that cause the balls to puff up, then they eat the not-so-tasty oak puffy balls – or whatever they’re called.
The Daily Mail shared this nasty news with the world just days ago. Those wasp nests are able to make vaginas sting wherever their powder is applied and even dry out the vaginal canal. However, vaginal oak gall application is said to act as a douche of sorts, heal scars and even active wounds from episiotomies, and build back the uterus after the miracle of birth reaps havoc on mothers’ bodies.
Popular Science notes that this quasi-treatment won’t make vaginal canals tighter as rumor may have it.
OK – I’m not trying this oak gall stuff anytime soon, that’s for sure. Would you consider applying crushed wasp nest in and around your no-no square?
