Let’s Talk Vagina: Clean, Odorless, And Healthy Tips… by newmuzik: 9:20am On Apr 02, 2015
A woman is not complete without her vagina. No matter how beautiful a woman is once she’s prone to have a s strong unpleasant smell from her vagina her beauty begins to erode in the eyes of her lover. The cleanliness and healthiness of a woman’s vagina defines her, reassures her and confirms her.

Naturally the vagina has a unique smell, a very balanced smell that is pleasant and alluring to the opposite sex. The moment the smell begins to become offensive, that becomes a serious problem that must be attended to before it escalates to a more fetid state.

Let’s look at some likely causes….

INFECTION AND STI’S: A change in your normal vaginal discharge may be the first sign of a vaginal problem. Changes in urination, such as having to urinate more frequently or having a burning feeling when you urinate, also may be a symptom of a vaginal problem. Infections of the vagina, such as a yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis, human papillomavirus (HPV), or herpes and Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as chlamydia or gonorrhea are likely causes. when such changes are discovered it is important to visit your hospital for tests and treatment.

It is also very important to treat the person you are sexually active with too, to avoid getting reinfected.

ANYTHING CHEMICAL: Anything chemical near your vagina or vulva, such as soaps and washes, will not only potentially irritate and expose yourself to toxins more easily absorbed through vaginal mucosa, but will effect vaginal pH which in turn effects healthy bacterial balance leading to odour and risk of infections. Same goes for so-called feminine washes as no wash can ever match your own individual pH as it changes throughout your cycles. Your vagina is self-cleaning so you just need to wash your vulva with water and use your hands to clean between labia.

HAIR VS NO HAIR: Hair can also play a role in smells because it traps odor. I don’t know anyone whose still holding on to the bush, but if you are, keeping the area clean and dry can eliminate an overgrowth in bacteria.

Lets look at some preventions….

AIR IT OUT: When air is limited, your body begins to smell. Think about the areas on your body that are prone to odor: mouth, armpits, butt and vagina. It seems like the world would be a better smelling place if we all just walked around in the nude instead of stifling our bodies with various layers of clothing. To make sure your vagina is getting plenty of air exposure, wear cotton panties. They may not be the sexiest pair of underwear your own, but your vagina is more important.

DRINK MORE WATER: Drinking lots of water is so important. Often, the vagina can smell from not drinking enough water. The rule of thumb is this, if you use the bathroom and your urine is clear to light, you’re drinking enough water. If your urine is any form of yellow, you need more water. There should be no odor or color change when you pee! If there is, look at what you’re eating. Sometimes asparagus and other foods can drastically change the smell. Also if you’re taking any type of medication or antibiotics it can change the smell and color.

CONTROL WHAT YOU EAT: Although your taste buds may be craving fats, carbohydrates and fast food, refraining from these foods will keep vaginal odor at bay. Unhealthy foods seep out through your pores as well as your vagina. Incorporating more veggies, and less sugar, into your diet will improve the health and odor of your vagina.

PRACTICE SAFE SEX: Also get regular check-ups, and if you smell bad this is a sign of infection so you should seek medical attention and treatment.

Nice one. Op in addition to that, washing the private part with water after defecating and after sex, even washing it frequently, helps keep the glory of a woman clean and free from smell.
