Is a stinky vagina odor normal after giving birth? I had an episiotomy and also hemorrhaged. When I pee it has an odd/off smell almost like a slight poop smell.

Question

I’ve been cleaning myself multiple times a day, and showering at least once a day. But the odor is still there. I am bleeding mild. And having a brown type of discharge. But nothing else out of the ordinary other than the gross odor.

Answer

sitz bath with a little iodine in warm water. if it doesn't help see your doc. your vagina is self cleaning, foul odor is a good sign something isn't normal.

Answer

How are you cleaning yourself? 
I had an episiotomy with my first and had no smell. I rinsed with water when I went to the bathroom and had a shower but that was it.

Answer

I had a csection I told my OB there was an odor at my 6 week check up he said it was normal, as I was still healing down there. He suggested a probiotic, he told me it would help
