Why do I keep smelling bad?

Question

I’ve never dealt with smelling bad down there until maybe late last year continuing this year. It’s like a fishy smell, not nice at all. I used to have a almost sweet smell and I still do sometimes but it seems like the majority of the times I’m smelling bad. Can someone tell me what may be causing this? It gets worse when my period is about to start. My dr says UTI or yeast infection but I don’t want to stay on the antibiotics every single time I smell bad. Maybe a natural remedy? 😫😣

Answer

Sounds like BV! I say eat tons of yogurt or buy a probiotic supplement. I take Garden if life 85 billion to keep this from happening. Probiotics helps populate the vag with good bacteria to fight bad bacteria and keep u from smelling. As a women u should be consuming it regularly even if u dont have women issues.

Answer

Sounds like Bacterial Vaginosis, which you will need medicine for. A fishy smell is never good so I would go to your doctor again, or see another doctor.

Answer

He could be that you need to increase your hydration, it could be what you’re wearing, make sure you’re wearing cotton underwear and cotton breathable fabric pants, because when you don’t, traps odor and wetness in, could be products that you’re using, soaps, lotions, detergent, could be if you’re sexually active, maybe his semen is throwing off your pH levels, perhaps you need to increase probiotics in your diet, like Greek yogurt, or actual supplements, sometimes your gut health is out of whack and you need to have things like kombucha, sometimes you need to stop having raw sex, and use condoms, could be the lube that you’re using, could be a reaction to latex, it could be a change in your diet, perhaps you have an intolerance to something, or an acidic diet, or if you have a diet high in sugar, or salt, the acidity from coffee or pasta sauce, lots of things can throw off your pH levels cause odor and wetness down there as well, if you’re going to the gym and sweating more, unfortunately gym clothes are usually not breathable fabric, it’s polyester stretchy pants, you got a figure it out by process of elimination. Or there could be an infection, there’s so many things that as ladies we have to deal with, and it sucks, BV, yeast infections, UTI, tric, thrush, I can go on and on unfortunately it’s a very sensitive area.￼￼
