Many of us are prone to bacterial vaginosis.
Some of the symptoms of this infection like the excessive vaginal discharge and fishy vaginal odor become a cause of concern embarrassment to most of us.
Like most of you I too consulted a gynecologist when I suffered from this infection for the first time.
However it was much later, when I got no relief from medicines did I figure out how to make use of natural cures to treat vaginal odor.
This primary cause of vagiosis is excessive growth of lactobacillus bacteria in the vagina.
When this bacterium grows in large numbers it produces amine containing compounds which causes this fishy vaginal smell.
How to make use of natural cures to treat fishy vaginal odor? a)As women we must always pay attention to our personal hygiene.
To get rid of foul odor, wash your vagina with plain water twice a day.
Wear clean, washed undergarments and change them every day.
b)A healthy diet too can keep your odor away.
Eat plenty of fresh raw fruits and vegetables.
Drink at least 2 liters of water to flush out all harmful toxins from your body.
c)Always make use of condoms.
It would be wise for you to carry condoms in your bag just in case your partner forgets about protection.
After sex clean the vaginal area with warm water to which a little salt has been added.
d)Always wear cotton panties only and sleep without underwear at night to enable your vagina to breathe freely.
e)To treat fishy vaginal odor completely start taking cranberry supplements.
Alternatively you can have fresh pure cranberry juice 3-4 times a day.
Have it in fresh form without adding any sweetener.
Do not make use of the canned or the tinned variety.
