Using An Intimate Deodorizer to Deal With Vaginal Odor

From all the scented feminine product advertisements you've seen on social media, you may question your own vagina's fragrance. All the fuss about vaginal freshness may also leave you conscious of your own odor. 

Contrary to popular belief, it's normal to have a mild vaginal odor. Every woman has a distinct scent that fluctuates depending on hormonal levels. A natural and healthy vagina has a moderate fleshy fragrance to it.

The vagina is self-lubricating and gets rid of harmful bacteria naturally. The natural vaginal odor comes from the secretions responsible for this. It is also normal to have a slightly metallic odor during menstruation.

However, a strong, persistent vaginal odor may be a symptom of underlying hygiene or PH issues. A fishy foul smell is a symptom of bacterial vaginosis and should be reason enough to consult your healthcare provider. 

Having a persistent vaginal odor can be irritating and stressful. Fortunately, using an effective intimate deodorizer is one of the several effective ways of managing vulva odor.

Causes of Vaginal Odor

Classifiable into two categories, vaginal odor can either be internal or external. Internal vaginal odor indicates medical complications that are best treated by a doctor, while the external vaginal odor may be manageable at home. 

An internal vaginal odor accompanies itching, irritation, and unusual discharge. These are signs of an infection, a PH imbalance, or an STD. They can get severe unless you seek medical attention. DIY treatments like douching will only make it worse. 

An external vaginal odor has the following characteristics:

• Excessive perspiration
• A sweaty and smelly feeling after exercise or sitting for too long
• Pungent underwear

How to get rid of Vaginal Odor

If you're experiencing external vaginal odor and are looking for tips on how to neutralize feminine body odor, here are a few:

• Use a vaginal deodorizer

Using a vaginal deodorizer to counter odor is perfectly acceptable if used outside of the labia to avoid messing up your natural PH. The LexPlus Deodorant and Brightener offers freshness and hydration by neutralizing body odor.

It optimizes skin hydration, promoting its restoration. It also behaves as a cleanser, removing impurities from the skin, gradually lightening the skin with its use. In addition, you can use it in areas such as the armpits, anus, and under the bust.

• Practice good hygiene

The vagina is self-cleaning, and soap should not be used inside of the vaginal canal as it may irritate the area. Instead, soap should only be used externally. Gently cleaning the vulva with a cleansing and moisturizing intimate soap not only helps rid of vaginal odor but can leave a fresh and moisturized feel. 

An unscented natural soap helps balance and restore the flora and PH levels, helping to reduce the growth of bad bacteria effectively.

• Invest in PH balance feminine products

There are plenty of PH products on the market that don't require a doctor's prescription. If you decide to follow this route, be sure to pick a reliable PH balancing feminine product made with Lactic Acid. Lactic Acid naturally occurs in the vagina and is necessary for vaginal health because it helps maintain and balance the ideal acidic vaginal pH.

If the situation persists, book a doctor's appointment to test your PH balance and have a physical evaluation.

• Clean up with feminine hygiene wipes

Toilet paper is a great but unsatisfactory way of cleaning up after using the toilet. Be sure to use feminine hygiene wipes after toilet paper as it's a great way to prevent and eliminate vaginal odor while restoring freshness. Avoid antibacterial wipes loaded with fragrance and alcohol as they can kill the good bacteria that maintain your vaginal PH.

The following are tips on preventing future vaginal odor:

• Take supplements and probiotic-rich foods

• Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains
