Strong Smelling Periods?
The strong smell is likely due to the blood and tissues exiting the vagina along with bacteria. It’s normal for the vagina to have bacteria, though the amount can fluctuate. The resulting “rotten” smell from bacteria mixed with menstrual flow shouldn’t be strong enough for others to detect.
What Does Period Blood Smell Like?
- If your period blood smells fishy, then it indicates that you might have bacterial vaginosis. It’s a type of infection that gets treated with antibiotics. The bacteria gets mixed with blood, and due to its reaction with the iron content, it creates a funky smell.
- If your period blood smells like rotten meat loaf, then it means that it’s time to change your menstrual pad (sanitary napkin).
- If your period blood smells a little on the sweeter side, don’t worry because it is completely normal. This happens when the pH level of your vagina shifts more towards the acidic side.
- Avoid scented tampons and and scented pads, as these can cause irritation and allergic reactions.
- Consult your physician for medical advice.
