For Ladies: How To Get Rid Of Unpleasant Vaginal Odor

Ladies, it is a big turn off if that down below smells like a rotten egg. Time to take good care of it abeg. One thing we should know as ladies is that our private part is extremely the most important part of our body and it is very necessary to keep it healthy and clean. Here is how to achieve it;

A lady's private parts is extremely important so it is very necessary to keep it healthy and clean, here is how.

1.      Wash it as often as possible- The worst thing for a lady is to have a bad odour in her vagina, so make sure you wash it as often as you can and with just water. Using a douche could lead to an infection and bad odour. Don't wash like you are trying to dig out gold biko. Now this is something i tell all ladies, yes i am very traditional but that is the way my mama brought me up. I totally don't go with the school of thought that says after using the toilet, use a tissue. I love using water and i think its the best way to go in making sure that place smells well. After water, you use the tissue to dry the surface. Go with hand wash and sanitizer and all will be okay.

2.      Keep it cleanly shaven- The shorter the vaginal hair, the lower the chances of odour and infections. Please don't allow the hair to grow to the extent that you can plait it.

3.      See a doctor as soon as you notice something different down there- Keeping an infection for too long could result in something bad and affect your fertility rates. Once you notice a bad smell, rush to your doctor. 

4.      Wear the right underwear- Wearing the right lingerie will allow air around your vagina. Wearing an underwear that is too tight could leave the area damp and open you to a bacterial invasion. Cotton underwear is preferably to nylon and other airless fabric. Also dont repeat underwear abeg. 

5.      Eat healthy to get a clean, healthy vagina- It has been proven that what you eat affects how your vagina smells and tastes so eat the right kind of fruits, especially those high in natural sugar like yogurt, garlic, oranges, apples, mangoes etc.

6.   Avoid using scented product, harsh laundry detergents, or feminine products designed to ‘freshen’ the vagina.
