This can be improved by paying more attention to hygiene. What is more serious is the odor during menstruation. At this time, we should understand what the symptoms of odor are and how we should improve it in the future.

1. Vaginitis:

The main clinical features of vaginitis are changes in the properties of leucorrhea and itching and burning pain of the vulva. It is also common to have an odor during menstruation. When the infection involves the urethra, there may be symptoms such as urinary pain and urgency. Common vaginitis includes bacterial vaginosis, Trichomonas vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, and senile vaginitis.

2. Women have unpleasant odor during menstruation, which is usually because the menstrual blood is mixed with blood, secretions from the endometrium and sebaceous glands, and sweat, so there will be a more obvious odor.

3. Pelvic inflammatory disease The main causes of acute pelvic inflammatory disease are postpartum or abortion infection, postoperative infection after intrauterine surgery, poor menstrual hygiene, and direct spread of inflammation of adjacent organs. The clinical manifestations may vary depending on the severity and extent of the inflammation. When the disease occurs, there is lower abdominal pain and fever. If the condition is serious, there may be chills, high fever, headache, and loss of appetite.

How to eliminate period odor?

1. Change sanitary napkins frequently

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, and no more than 4 hours at a time, to reduce the contact between the skin and wet sanitary napkins. When the menstrual blood volume is heavy, the frequency of changing sanitary napkins should be increased accordingly.

2. Clean the genitals and keep them healthy

Female friends should frequently perform local cleaning, and clean the lower body with clean water or a wet towel at least twice a day, and the situation will be effectively improved.

3. Dress appropriately and keep the room ventilated

Many women, especially young women, like to wear tight clothes to highlight their figures. Even during their menstrual period, they often like to wrap themselves tightly without ventilation. In fact, doing so 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 wear loose clothes to ensure ventilation.

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.
