A woman's vagina is naturally filled with bacteria, however an overgrowth condition of these bacteria is called bacterial vaginosis and causes a “fishy” odor.

It is important to not that not all vaginal odors are caused by an infection, however. ... They can be harmful because they remove the fluids that naturally clean your vagina

Every female has a natural vaginal scent that can change throughout her menstrual cycle. A strong odor however, can be a sign of an infection, particularly if she is sexually active.

Certain sexually transmitted infections (STI’s) such as trichomoniasis can cause a different odor. A woman’s vagina is naturally filled with bacteria but when there is an overgrowth, the condition is called bacterial vaginosis and causes a “fishy” odor.

The females V-J is supposed to have a smell and the smell usually changes throughout ones cycle. But when the odour is unusual, it can be caused by a lot of things.

Some ladies have little or no knowledge about the cause of this terrible experience and all they do is to keep washing their V-J with very strong soap with lots of fragrance that will even cause more harms and infections to the V-J.

V*J discharge is most often a normal and regular occurrence. However, there are certain types of discharge that can indicate an infection. Abnormal discharge may be yellow or green, chunky in consistency, or foul smelling. Yeast or a bacterial infection usually causes abnormal discharge.

Here Are 6 Reasons Why Your V-JAY Has Terrible Smell:

1. Acidity. The pH of a healthy vagina is slightly acidic, between 3.8 and 4.5. “The Lactobacilli bacteria keep the vagina acidic,” says Minkin. “This protects against an overgrowth of the bad kinds of bacteria.”

The symptoms include gray or cheesy discharge and a burning sensation during intercourse or when you urinate .

2. Hormones : When your Ovulating or on your period, your V-J might smell stronger than usual.

This is quite normal but if the smell really bothers you, you may have to seek medical help.
