most of the postops I know are really strict about personal hygiene - so I haven't come across anything like you've mentioned.
I don't think that is quite true though - it isn't truly artificial since it is created from her body parts. Here is an interesting article from a postop's own web site:

Yes a good dr (or drs) make a difference in the final result.

In some ways, the neo-vagina (as it is referred to) is very similar in its needs to a natal woman's vagina. There is a delicate balance needed between good bacteria and good fungus (yeast), for instance, that may take your body a while to €˜figure out'. This is particularly true at first, I've found, as you are most likely cleaning yourself internally at a great frequency. This internal mixture of bacteria and fungus is sometimes referred to by women as the "flora". Sounds pretty, eh?
Dr. Schrang recommended a white vinegar douche (2 tablespoons vinegar at most) as an internal cleanser. This makes the water slightly acidic, and helps to maintain the balance between good and bad bacteria. If things get out of balance, then infections occur, particularly fungal (yeast) infections. The good bacteria keeps the yeast in check, and when it is killed off (by cleansers or the use of oral or topical antibiotics) then the yeast flourishes. Time to see your doctor or gynecologist then!
