6 Vaginal Odours Every Woman Needs To Know About by Prognose: 9:09pm On Apr 04, 2018 |
While it's perfectly natural for your pussy to have some sort of aroma, certain vaginal odors can indicate a serious infection — particularly when accompanied by a change in color, amount, or consistency of vaginal discharge, according to the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). Here are the smells you should look out for to assess whether your scent is super normal, or soured and in need of medical treatment. 1. MUSKY When your vagina is healthy, its scent can vary based on your activity level. For instance, after a super-intense exercise, you may notice a stronger, muskier almost goat-like smell due to moisture released by sweat glands in the surrounding region, according to Dr. Wider. While this tends to be 100 percent normal, any scent that bothers you enough to want to cover it up warrants a call to your doctor just in case something more serious is up, since an out-of-the-ordinary or intolerable change could signal an infection, according to ACOG. 2. FISHY If your vagina gives off a strong, fishy odor that smells foul, chances are you're suffering from an infection, according to ACOG. If the odor increases right after sex, or it's accompanied by an increase in discharge, it could be bacterial vaginosis, a condition marked by an overgrowth of bacteria that upsets the vagina's delicate PH balance, which can be cleared up with antibiotics. Or, if you notice greenish discharge, vaginal itching, and pain when you pee, you could have trichomoniasis, a common and treatable sexually transmitted disease. Either way, you'll want to see your doctor for treatment — and never resort to washing deep inside the vagina, since the practice has been linked to hormonal disruptions, chronic disease, and reproductive and developmental problems as well as heightened risk of ovarian cancer. 3. BLEACHY Dr. Wider says lubricants or condoms can contribute to this smell, which most women liken to chlorine or bleach, she says. Luckily, it's nothing to be worried about — just restock your sex drawer if these scents bother you. 4. YEASTY While there's normally a small amount of yeast present inside your vagina, yeast infections occur when there's an overgrowth due to lubrications, spermicides, antibiotic use, or even pregnancy, according to ACOG. You'll know something's up if you notice a faint, bread-like smell along with cottage cheese-like or akamu-like discharge. While you should inform your doctor to confirm this diagnosis, most yeast infections can be cured with anti-fungal medications, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). 5. TINNY OR METALLIC SMELL If your vagina seems to smell a bit off or vaguely metallic when you get your period, don't sound the alarms. See, when you have your period, the blood can mix with the natural state of a healthy vagina and give off a different — but typically normal — smell, according to Dr. Wider. 6. SWEET Anecdotally, your diet can affect the taste and scent of your vagina. For instance, citrus fruits like oranges, pineapple, mango and grapefruit have been known to sweeten the smell and taste of vaginal fluids, according to Dr. Wider. On the other hand, onions, garlic, broccoli, and asparagus can cause what some describe as an "unpleasant" odor and taste, she says. Hey, to each their own!

honestly op I do talk before that ladies got smelly pussy, but now with what I have seen over years I concluded, smelly pussy is caused by lack of proper maintenance . it took me a hard earned bold step to walk up to my mum, sisters and asked them this questions about smelly pussy just to all finally conclude. Again how about men who have allowed their dick hair to look brown, I wonder why! I have never seen a lady with brown pussy hair before, what wrong 3 Likes |
