Betadyne is a solution of povidine and iodine. It is used as an antiseptic, and can be diluted for a variety of purposes, such as a type of sitz bath. My pediatrician recommended it for my 4-year-old daughter for this purpose, as she has had recurrent irritation and odor in the vaginal area. She sits in a solution of 3 tablespoons of Betadyne to 1 gallon of water for about 15 minutes. It definitely helps.
