I did my 8 weeks on a maternity unit. At the start of my time there we shaved pubic hair off. Mid-way through the standing orders where changed and pubic shaving was stopped. Some researched showed that it didn't reduce infections and might cause infections due to razor nicks and rash. I did get to see a good few pubic areas before and after. Never shaved a patient but shaved a good few colleagues and GF etc afterwards.
