CAUSES OF VAGINAL ODOR

The vagina’s normal pH level ranges from 3.5 to 4.5. In these conditions, beneficial bacteria keep any odor-causing bacteria to a minimum. If bad (pathogenic) bacteria grow in number, however, the beneficial bacteria may struggle to keep up. This elevates the pH level and often results in feelings of discomfort and a “fishy” vaginal odor. If the pH level is elevated for too long, a bacterial vaginosis (BV) infection could develop.

The odor itself stems from odor-causing bacteria thriving off glucose that is naturally present in the vagina. The sugars are metabolized and turned into amines, which release an unpleasant smell. A similar process occurs with the odors associated with sweat and menstruation. In those cases, sweat and menstrual fluid both feature a high pH level which draws in the odor-causing bacteria.

TIPS TO PREVENT VAGINAL ODOR

Vaginal odor can be prevented by keeping a healthy vaginal pH balance of 3.5 to 4.5. This ensures that beneficial bacteria can thrive and keep bad bacteria under control. When levels remain steady, the bacteria levels in the vagina are balanced and issues like feminine odor and infection are unlikely to occur.

Pro-Fem contains clinically tested, medical-grade vaginal probiotics which help to maintain healthy pH levels. It bypasses the digestive system to reach the vaginal microbiome and keep bacteria levels balanced and healthy. This product can be taken daily to reduce the risk of infection and feminine odor.

VAGINAL ODOR BASICS

What It Is: Vaginal odor is an unpleasant scent from the vagina. When the odor results from imbalances in pH levels or a bacterial vaginosis (BV) infection, a “fishy” vaginal odor is typically present. An odor that is yeastier in nature (similar to that of bread or beer in smell) often indicates a yeast infection, especially when it is combined with a white discharge.

How to Get Rid of Vaginal Odor: Vaginal odor is often the result of a pH imbalance in the vagina, so restoring that balance is a critical part of vaginal odor treatment. Taking vaginal probiotics like Pro-Fem helps to get your pH back to healthy levels and reduce the number of odor-causing bacteria present in the vagina. If other symptoms lead you to believe you may have a vaginal infection, seek treatment from a medical professional.

How to Prevent Vaginal Odor: Probiotics don’t have to be taken only when you are experiencing feminine odor. Taking Pro-Fem regularly is clinically proven to help maintain healthy vaginal pH levels on a daily basis, ensuring that an unpleasant odor is less likely to develop.

USING PRO-FEM FOR VAGINAL ODOR

Restoring healthy pH levels is critical to treating most cases of vaginal odor. Taking Pro-Fem will help to balance the bacteria levels and pH in the vagina and begin eliminating the odor within weeks. If the odor persists, it may be a sign of bacterial vaginosis (BV) or a yeast infection, so see a medical professional to get a diagnosis and treatment plan.
