Q: Strong Vaginal Odor That Gets Worse After Sex? U May Have Bv

havent recently found that i have contracted Bacterial Vaginosis...its a condition that is found in the vaginal area thats syptoms include...irregular discharge and also a almost fishy smell that gets worse after intercourse.
I hadnt heard of it before and i just thought id post this to make u aware of it... its can be treated.. but there is no definate cure.
People i have read about having it online in forums like this have many different natural remedies for BV and i strongly suggest you research it and find out if this is what you have.
Bv is when the natural PH in the the vagina is unsettled and causes the good bacteria to be killed off my an owerflow of nasty bactiera.
BV is known to orcur after and during a period but not always.
I can be triggered off by washin the vagina to much with alot of showergel and soaps which are causing havoc with our acidic vaginas, to get around this u can buy shower gels that a vagina friendly i think there is one call femfresh.
As we are meant to be acidic down there, havin unprotected sex also tiggers it of as male seamen is alkalie and also messes up the natural ph, i am currently havin sex with condoms.
BV is very common but strangly not known of buy many women.
I have also come to the conclusion that i havent go it as bad as other women and that people get it worse than others.
I have purchased a product from the internet called VagiClear which seems to have worked for me and taken away the smell. It is interted into the vaginia and also can be taken orally, i have been doing both.
Other ways to tackle it is to eat alot of probiotic yougurt and yougurt.... these products contain millions of live friendly bactiera that will help to fight the infection.
Other method that i have researched are boric acid caspules, folic acid, probiotic capsules, cranberry juice, tea tree oil........ alothough alot of women find that the condition doesnt ever really go away for good all of these producs have worked on different women but its up to u to find the one that works for ur own body.... i hope this helps u Smile
This condidtion have made me realise i shoud be taking more care of myself
jenny xx Very Happy
