is this ok?
is this the same thing as douching? i wash the outside of my vagina with body wash and then ill put some on 2 of my fingers and ill slide them in and out of my vagina to clean it. then i take out my fingers, rinse them off and then keep putting my fingers back inside of my vagina until i dont see anymore soap coming out on my fingers. it it ok to clean your vagina like that?

The second answer is more correct. Your vagina has a way of washing itself - that's what the discharge is. Any soap up there will disrupt the normal pH of your vagina and will allow the wrong sort of bacteria to grow. You have a delicate balance with normal bacteria that are there to help keep things like yeast in check. If you MUST do something, I would say just to use a shower head with a stream to squirt water up there, but doing absolutely nothing is even better. Clean the outside of your labia with a mild soap and water, making sure not to get anything near the urinary meatus, which could cause irritation and lead to a bladder infection. You should be sure to wipe from front to back, never putting anything near your vagina once it has been near your anus.
Your current routine is not only unnecessary, but it is dangerous. Please reconsider.

hey
no. it's not okay. the soap can get pushed deep into your vagina and you can get an infection.
the way to clean your vagina is to get in the shower, and before you shampoo or condition and DEFINITELY before you put body wash on, just do what you were doing with water. it's very dangerous to put soap in your lips, let alone IN your vaginal hole
after you clean it and start putting the body wash on, dont put your fingers in your butt or vagina.
i hope i helped, and be careful :]
