Fishy Vaginal Odor is No Joke
Posted byBV under Bacterial Vaginosis Treatment
Why have you fallen out of favor with the goddess? You feel like you are a living example of crude locker room humor.
You reek of a fishy vaginal odor and everything you have tried to do to eliminate it simply does not work, but there is a solution to your problem.
If you do have a fishy vaginal smell there is one and only one thing that is wrong with you.
You have developed a potentially serious condition that is known as Bacterial Vaginosis, a type of vaginitis.
One of the indicators of bacterial vaginosis (BV) is this unique fishy smell.
Let me tell you right here and now what will NOT work to get rid of it.
Washing
Scrubbing
Soap of any kind
Vaginal Deodorants
Perfumes
Vaginal Wipes
Douches
You have probably tried most if not all of those methods mentioned to cure your problem.
Half of those types of products may only temporarily mask the actual problem. In fact it may be likely that it was those types of commercial products that triggered your onset of bacterial vaginosis in the first place.
Bacterial vaginosis can only occur in women. While not all women who have bacterial vaginosis will experience a fishy vaginal odor, for the women that do it is a humiliating experience that can strain a relationship.
In fact only about 50% of the women who have BV will experience the symptom of a fishy odor eminating from the vagina.
Some women have lived with recurring bacterial vaginosis for years. They find that many doctors just are not sympathetic to their plight.
Most doctors will simply do what has been safely done in the past, prescribe you anti-biotics and send you on your way. While anti-biotics do work as many as 30% of the women find that their BV has returned within 6 months.
