Did you know that discussing vaginal odor is still a taboo topic for many women? However, it's a common concern that deserves attention and understanding. If you've noticed a strong or unusual odor in your intimate area, you're not alone: there are effective and safe ways to treat it.
What causes vaginal odor?
The causes can vary, but it's important to recognize when it's a normal change or a warning sign. Some of the most common are:
- Vaginal pH imbalance: This occurs when lactobacilli decrease and odor-causing bacteria proliferate.
- Infections: such as bacterial vaginosis, which may have a metallic odor.
- Hormonal changes: menstrual cycle, pregnancy or menopause can affect pH.
- Unsuitable products: such as perfumed soaps or tight synthetic clothing.
- Sweat and moisture: especially from not changing after training.
