Ladies letās talk about BV – Bacterial Vaginosis
Way too many women are not in touch with their vaginal and sexual health. Because oral sex us still so taboo in many cultures namely mine (Jamaican/Caribbean/African American). Women are not in touch with their body odour and their vaginal discharge.
1. Download Flo – itās a great app to log your menstrual cycle and it has a great community for learning about your sexual health holistically.
2. The vagina shouldnāt smell. The vaginaās natural smell is pleasant almost odourless but itās not, itās feminine and intimate. It should not be fishy. Touch yourself down their more often and smell it, if the smell lingers you need to adjust something; underwear material, water intake, body wash/soaps, sexual health.
3. Your discharge changes depending on what phase of your cycle you are in. Itās normal to have āegg whiteā, ācreamyā, but neither of these smell. If they do, something is amiss. If itās cheesecake consistency itās probably a yeast infection (which is not an STI/STD, just a little imbalance down there). If itās runny and has an odd smell itās likely BV. No it will not go away on itās own. Go to a doctor and get medication. If you smell it others do too. (Same goes for armpit odour)
I find it very unpleasant using public washrooms because going in immediately after another female and smelling what their vaginas smell like is very off putting. If you smell it, we do too. Wear 100% cotton underwear and loose fitting pants. I personally donāt believe in wearing panties all month long; let your šŗ breathe outside of your period. Donāt use strong scented body wash/ soaps down there…
Douching is not healthy. Leave the lace panties and thongs for sexy time with your partner. They were made to be put on and taken off in less than an hour, not for all day wear. Change your sanitary product every 2-4 hours. Honestly, it stinks and Iām tired of smelling it. Get your šŗ together ladies. You canāt be a stinky pussy hot gyal. Pum pum fi fresh and taste good.
The end.
Oh, and have regular check ups with your gynaecologist. Let them poke around and get your Pap smears and breast exams done often. Sex too nice fi have stinky pussies.
