Help Your Woman Get Rid of Bad Vaginal Odor

A couple of weeks ago, one of our readers posted a question about vaginal odor, and how to get rid of it. His concern was that his partner had extremely strong vaginal odor, and he wanted to know how he could go about helping her to overcome this small problem. This is actually quite an important question, because it is something that can affect both a man and a woman in an intimate relationship.

It is very normal for a woman to have a slight vaginal odor. In many cases, the odor will change during her menstrual cycle. You’ll find that the nearer it comes to her actually having her period, the stronger the smell will be. Some women naturally have stronger smells than other woman. Now the reason why I tell you this, is because I don’t want you to feel that it is important to get rid of your partner’s vaginal odor just because she has one. This article is to help couples where a woman has an unnaturally offensive vaginal odor.

In most cases, bad vaginal odor is derived due to the overproduction of bad bacteria, thus causing infections in the vagina. There are many infections that can cause this type of odor, which is usually a smelly fishy type of odor. A list of some of these infections are; yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, and many sexually transmitted diseases, such as chlamydia, genital herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, and many more. (yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis may be spread or passed from partner to partner but are not considered std’s)

The overproduction of bad bacteria can be caused by many means. One way is due to poor hygiene, while another way is is by contracting it through sex. Another equally important reason is because a woman is trying to be hygienic by using the wrong products. By using products that are not pH balanced for the vagina, they begin to kill all the good bacteria, thus inviting the bad bacteria to enter and take over. When this happens, it disturbs the pH balance of the vagina. It is for this reason why douching is never advised, and why you should never use harsh cleaning products when cleaning the vagina.

The best way to prevent this from happening is by purchasing mild soaps and only clean the outer vaginal lips. Never try to use any detergent to clean inside the vagina, because the inside of the vagina is self-cleaning. It can take care of itself.

If your partner would like to use any of the feminine washing products, always make sure that she chooses products that have the pH balanced sign on them.

Another way in which your partner can prevent stronger vaginal odor is by allowing her vagina to breathe properly. To ensure that this happens, she should always buy panties that have 100 % cotton crotches. These type of panties will allow the air to circulate near the vagina, thus allowing it to breathe. The idea is never to have any type of tight clothing that constrict air flow to the vagina.

Another reason why a woman’s vagina could have an unpleasantly strong odor is due to the diet that she eats. Just like the taste of a man’s semen depends on what he eats, so does the smell of a woman’s vagina. Therefore, certain foods that are either very spicy, or foods that have strong tastes like different types of cheese, or even if a woman eats a lot of chocolate, especially dark chocolate, it will have an effect on the smell of her vagina. As a matter of fact, it will have an effect on her overall body odor, and this holds true for men as well. Therefore, keep an eye on what she’s eating, as this might hold a vital clue as to why she might have very strong vaginal odor.

When all else fails, then you have to come to accept that it is just the way she is. While some women have a very mild vaginal odor, other woman have a very strong vaginal odor. There is nothing they can do about it, and really, there is nothing wrong with them either. It is just that they smell stronger. In the end, this is something that both yourself and your partner are going to have to learn to live with.
