Is This Why Your Vagina Smells?
By Naweko San-Joyz

Before you curse, Wanda, let me offer you these tips for vaginal health to use at you own discretion:

  1. The vagina needs to breathe, so let it. Wear pantyhose less often. Use knee-highs or thigh-highs instead.
  2. Wear cotton underwear instead of synthetic underwear.
  3. Use condoms during sex. Even though the theory that sex can cause a vaginal infection remains contested, use a condom is a preventative until the infection gone.
  4. Add one teaspoon of boric acid or a half-cup of hydrogen peroxide to two quarts of warm water. (For the boric acid to mix well you need to make sure the water is warm). Use the boric acid or hydrogen peroxide douche for two weeks and stop. The boric acid and hydrogen peroxide should increase the amount of lactic acid within the vagina. This increased amount of lactic acid within the vaginal helps restore the proper bacterial balance within the vaginal and reduces the chances of re-infection.
  5. Eat less sugar so that you don’t feed the yeast.
  6. See a doctor if you still have doubts. The Mayo Clinic Women's “HealthSource” newsletter has cautioned women against hastily self-diagnosing vaginal problems and labeling every smelly vagina issue as a “yeast infection”. This may not allows be the case.

Ok, I hope you smell better now and if in doubt, check it out.
