What should I do if my vagina has odor?

I believe that many female friends will encounter this problem. No matter they are married or unmarried women, they often have bad odor in their lower body, and even cannot be cured for a long time and recurs repeatedly. This makes women feel very embarrassed and lose confidence. Most of the bad odor in women's vagina is caused by inflammation. Vaginal odor is often a manifestation of gynecological diseases. So what should women do if they have bad odor in their vagina?

A woman's vulva will emit some unique odors, which are related to some secretions from the vagina and vulva. Under normal circumstances, the fluids secreted by the vagina and vulva prevent bacterial invasion and maintain local lubrication; when there are reproductive system diseases, especially inflammatory diseases, a certain amount of inflammatory secretions will be secreted. The former is physiological and the latter is pathological.

Pathological (inflammatory) secretions often have a "putrid smell", and the amount of leucorrhea increases significantly, the color is dirty yellow, and sometimes even pus and blood. Most are infections caused by various microorganisms, including Trichomonas, fungi, and various bacteria.

Physiological secretions are mostly colorless or very light yellow, thinner, and have a certain relationship with the menstrual cycle. The most important thing is that this secretion is slightly acidic and has a special sour taste, such as the special "stinky" smell described in ancient novels as "like orchid but not orchid, like musk but not musk". In fact, this smell is unique to women. Most people are accustomed to it and cannot distinguish it. You can tell your classmate to ask his relatives and friends. They will definitely not smell this so-called "smell". From the perspective of the male-female relationship of organisms, this special "smell" may also have a good effect in attracting the opposite sex. Knowing this, you will be at ease.

Some people may ask, why can I only smell my own body odor, but not others? In addition to the difference in distance, the main reason is that I am in a state of self-olfactory hypersensitivity. The more suspicious I am, the more I feel the presence of the "stink". If you can eliminate this psychological barrier and face it calmly, this self-smell allergy will naturally alleviate or even disappear.

If a woman has an odor in her lower body, it is usually due to vaginitis. Doctors recommend a routine check of leucorrhea. After the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment should be given. Don't take medication blindly on your own. Because the types of vaginitis are different, the drugs used are different.

This is the answer to the question about vaginal odor in women. If you find that your vaginal secretions have an odor, please be sure to pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene in your daily life. Underwear should not be washed at the same time as insoles and socks. It is best to use a separate laundry container for underwear. After washing, it is best to expose the underwear to the sun. It is best for couples to receive treatment at the same time to avoid repeated infection between the couples due to intercourse, which may cause the disease to linger. Sexual intercourse is prohibited during treatment.
