Reasons Why 100% Effective Vaginal Odour Treatments “Don’t” Work

>> Saturday, February 6, 2010

Why is it that every piece of information found on vaginal odour treatments or vaginal discharge is nearly always the same? Many women admit to feeling more frustrated over this than that of their actual vaginal concern. Reasons given for this happening is, if inappropriate treatments are used and still no cure then naturally you are drawn like a magnet to once again return for what seems repetitive information? Let us say you have a vaginal odour and would like rid because of embarrassment, then what do you do, you look for medication or a solution to clear the smell. You can prevent further episodes of frustration if the right vaginal odour treatments are used in the first place. Take note all frustrated women, could you be using the wrong treatment, if so then the law of average has it that you will no doubt go back and have to read the same old thing over and over again until you get it right. No treatment no matter how affective will give positive results if treating the wrong condition.

Vaginal odour treatments vary purely because of different causes. These causes can be brought about for many reasons of which need to be determined by your doctor so he/she can get to the root of the problem for why the smell is there. Vaginal odour treatments are only 100% affective if your prescription is to treat the right symptoms. The vagina is an odourless organ of the body, but if your vagina is in the process of releasing an unhealthy smell - then there has to be a perfectly simple explanation for this, and for why there maybe a vaginal itch also. Having an itch around your private parts is not only embarrassing but one that can worsen if infection sets in after the delicate skin surrounding the vagina is torn through fingernails used for relief.

The best course of action to avoid vaginal irritation is to keep the genital area dry giving the region room breathe.

1 Cotton underwear should be worn
2 Change sanitary towels and tampons at regular intervals
3 Refrain from using vaginal sprays, deodorants or other type smellies
4 Remove damp clingy clothing caused through sweating
5 Avoid tight-fitting clothes; not only to help keep vaginal smells at bay but for comfort too
6 Wearing synthetic materials next to the skin can cause irritation
7 Cleanse well after using the loo. Use the front to back motion after bowel movement
8 Hot sweaty conditions should have you wash more

There may be times that you feel the need to go that extra mile by giving the vagina a real good scrub on the inside. Douching is not recommended as it can disturb the vagina's natural acidic balance and increase risk of irritation. A vaginal douche forces water or other fluids into the vaginal cavity to clean away discharge or stubborn period blood. The vulva only needs a daily rinse with warm water. Some fem products may contain scented ingredients which can add to your problem or cause irritation.

Bacterial Vaginosis/vaginitis

Bacterial vaginosis is an inflammation which happens in the vagina and includes several germs that cause bacterial vaginosis yeast infections and trichomoniasis. Bacterial vaginosis is the most common vaginal infection affecting from 10 percent to 64 percent of the female population. If BV is left untreated it can increase risk of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), endometritis, cervicitis, and cause complications to rise throughout pregnancy. Main causes of bacterial vaginosis include an overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria and the Gardnerella organism.

One familiar symptom of bacterial infection is an unpleasant fishy odor. Itching and/or burning sometimes come with bacterial infections, but are not necessarily a symptom of the condition. Bacterial Vaginosis treatment is relatively easy and effective. BV treatment usually consists of three days or up to a week of applying Cleocin 2% vaginal cream. Oral antibiotic treatment is sometimes given on prescription.

Vaginal Thrush

Thrush is an infection caused by yeast called Candida. Tiny numbers of Candida live on the skin and around the vaginal region. The immune system and the harmless bacteria that normally reside on the skin and in the vagina usually stop Candida from flourishing. Trailing behind bacterial vaginosis, thrush is the second most common cause of a vaginal discharge. Discharge is recognized as white and smooth, but can be loose (watery.) Aside from pain (not all patients) thrush is a female complaint of torment where the symptoms of an itch and redness come to the fore. Symptoms are normally petty and clear up them self. There are various treatments for thrush so it is important for your doctor to be the one who recommends any treatments.

Topical treatments are pessaries and creams which are inserted into the vagina with an applicator. Ingredients include anti-yeast medicines such as clotrimazole, econazole, fenticonazole, or miconazole. You can get topical treatments on prescription, or you can buy them at chemists without a doctor's prescription. Topical treatments can be used if you are expecting a baby.

Two types of tablet for treating thrush are available. Fluconazole is taken as a single dose, or itraconazole which is taken as two doses over the course of 24 hours. Side-effects are rare. Unlike topical treatments these are not to be taken if pregnant or breastfeeding. Anti-yeast cream can be rubbed onto the skin around the vagina to help relieve an itch. Tablet treatments and topical creams are equally effective. Women find the tablets more convenient, although more expensive, but hey girls what's a few extra pennies in comparison to having a healthy vagina.
