Do you experience fowl smell from your private parts? This could be bacterial Vaginosis. Read on!
What is bacterial vaginosis?
🦠Simply put, bacterial vaginosis is a type of va**nal inflammation caused by the overgrowth of va**nal bacteria.
🦠It results when their is a change in the balance of the va**nal bacteria.
🦠When the natural balance of the va**nal bacteria is in shambles, BV results.
🦠Just like in yeast infection, certain things can predispose one to BV (and it’s similar), this things include:
-antibiotics abuse
-douching the va**na (with eg feminine wash, soaps and the likes).
-spraying perfume on the va**na
-natural lack of the lactobacilli bacteria
⚠️The va**na of a healthy woman maintaining proper hygiene doesn’t have a bad smell. If ur va**na has a fishy smell or it has a strong unpleasant odor then there is possibility of an infection.
⚠️Feminine wash & the likes won’t solve it. They will only worsen things in the long run.
⚠️Washing the va**na with soap will only worsen things for u. Once there is an unusual smelly discharge, see ur healthcare provider to have it solved.
👉🏽Only use warm water on the va**na. You can use soap to wash the a**l & p***c regions of the va**na but don’t use it on the va**na.
👉🏽Other things like
-using a wet underwear,
-tight underwear,
-being overweight, and
-constant use of steroidal drugs can predispose a female to yeast infection.
