Treatment for post-menstrual odor

Many female friends will feel that their bodies have an unpleasant odor after menstruation, and no matter what method they use, it cannot be washed off, which makes female friends very helpless. They don’t know what causes this situation, and it is very embarrassing. So how should we treat the unpleasant odor after menstruation?

1. Choosing good sanitary products is an effective way to suppress odor

Many people like to wrap themselves tightly during menstruation, but this is like adding fuel to the fire, which will only increase sweat penetration and sweat odor. Therefore, during menstruation, you should use cotton underwear and change sanitary napkins as often as possible, not more than 4 hours at a time, so as to reduce the contact between skin and wet sanitary napkins. When the menstrual blood volume is heavy, the frequency of changing sanitary napkins should be increased accordingly.

2. Clean and remove odors in time during menstruation

During the menstrual period, female hormone secretion is stronger and the sebaceous glands secrete more vigorously. In addition to being prone to acne, the lower body is also more likely to secrete oil, resulting in a greasy feeling. At this time, local cleaning is necessary frequently. The situation will improve effectively if you wash your genitals with soap at least once a day and clean them with clean water or a wet towel twice a day.

3. Change sanitary napkins frequently

In fact, menstrual blood does not have any odor when it first flows out, but when it comes into contact with the air, an oxidation reaction occurs, and several chemicals mix together, which produces the smell. The solution to overcome this problem is of course to choose sanitary napkins with good breathability and change them frequently. Doctors also recommend that you should avoid eating high-fat, high-calorie foods during menstruation, and instead eat fruits, vegetables, and beans. A light diet will refresh your body.

4. Use special detergent to remove odor

When the temperature is high, bacteria in the private parts are easy to multiply, so you can use special cleanser or wet wipes to gently wipe it. But it should not be used frequently, as the user's ability to clean the private parts will be weakened. It can only be used when the smell is strong and before the end of menstruation.

5. Take a bath frequently and keep dry

More importantly, you must take a bath frequently during menstruation. If you don’t take a bath for more than two days, the “odor” is inevitable. Of course, it may not be the smell of menstrual blood, but may be your own body odor. You can use thin silk sanitary napkins with good breathability and strong absorbency to make you feel more relaxed during your menstrual period without being affected by the odor of menstrual blood.

The above is a detailed introduction to the treatment of odor after menstruation. When this happens, it is best to keep your body clean and tidy, otherwise the situation will become more serious and the odor will become heavier.
