Hey I'm 21 with the same problem and I know this sounds wired but my Dr told me about this woman who tried it.. she says eat Greek yogurt and also at night before bed put some Greek yogurt inside your vagina as your over washing and not leaving any bacteria in your vagina don't use scented things as they irritate the bacteria use a bar of soap instead of gels xx
i just read somewhere the brown blood is old blood because it is not being expelled quickly.. but i am with you with the odor..
I've been reading around for an answer just like this, thanks, this is right on. My symptoms are same as yours and I've had 2 periods in a row that took like 3 days to really open the flood gates and now this rotten after birth smell, of only the blood, not me. Your theory makes perfect sense, to hell with aging uteruses!!
You have got to be kidding! you are over doing the perfume. pads, spraying your crotch? and pants? you are paranoid. if you stink that bad you need a serious douche. Please go to the doctor and yes your co workers can smell you and do not appreciate it. can you use a medicated douche?
Thank you so much to whoever posted this solution using grapefruit seed extract - it worked so well for me and I'm so grateful!!!
Having similar issues. Been to my docTor and put me on a medicine to regulate but the smell I have is different now and I am not happy. I am 44 so I see a thing about Age changing stuff. No perfumes dyes for me but wondering about apple cider vinegar and water? Vinegar is suppose to help pH balance the body. Also absolutely no antibacterial soaps!!! Those are the biggest cause of yeast infections. Girl told me in the soap aisle years ago and I listened. I always pass info along. Never had once since!!!
omg that was a funny read but I think you are right on im now 40 and the same thing happens to me . there is no problem with smell until the my period and I have super bad cramps at first and the second day its uncontrollable I almost cant leave the house due to constant blood clots and then when it slows the next day its awful . its like 2 day old road kill and I hate to douche but I think im going to start
I'm 43 years old,and sometimes it smells rotte,could that be the case ?
Oh my God, this makes so much sense. I am 40 and always thought the changes were due to age. Exactly as you stated, there are days of your period "trying to start" and this is the odor timeframe.
Hi there I have had the same problem recently the last 4 months every time my period comes it is like rotten it's horrible also I have been getting bad smell discharge too I know it's not normal I have been to the doctor twice and they have said its nothing just stress but also having other symptoms like indigestion everyday twice a day acid in my stomach was so bad the other night I woke up burped some up and it was burning my throat and mouth, ive had fatigue feeling lightheaded mostly ever time I stand up even if I don't stand up quickly, I asked the doctor if I could have a smear and he said no not until your 25 that's 3 years away yet I've told both doctors I'm not feeling right I know there's something wrong I've had 2 children and these symptoms started a few months after I had my 2nd, I don't know what to do and I'm panicking it's worrying me so badly I've started having panick attacks
Go to your obgyn dr & be sure you do not have a forgotten tampon in if you use them!! I just went through this during the summer, believe me I said to myself I have been using them for along time I would never forget!! Well I did. Had dr take out but had no symptoms according to him but within a few days I could hardly bear the back spasm pains every few minutes they stopped me in my tracks!! I then saw my reg dr & he put me on some really strong antibiotics to rid my body of infection. Yes it found the most vulnerable place and manifested there. I was down for the count for several days but everyday got better. I also had the dizziness and other symptoms you described as well prior to getting it removed. I hope things work out for you my dr told me I was lucky to be sitting on his table because for the amount of time it was there I should have gone sepsis!!! I pray you either try to find out for yourself if you have one there or you go to ob to find out.
It's not old tampons. I have the same issue and I don't use tampons.
Hi, ladies I am having the same issues I am 31 yes old and I never had these issues until I got older. I don't have any children but I am trying to have a baby but every time I start my period I end up with this rotten meat smell as if I am miscarriaging why. This will be my first child if I do have a baby. Everytime I go to the doctors they say I am not pregnant but I have gained 15 pounds since I started trying to have a baby but they sat I am not pregnant crazy. What should I do? I am not on birth control because I want a child. I am having a hard time conceiving. I never started having issues until I started trying to conceive. Now I every time I come on my cycle I have this rotten throw up smell. I am scared I am loosing my babies.
ME TOO. IT'S GROSS AND I HATE IT. I'm 16, a virgin, and I keep my body clean always. So I have no idea what it is but usually my periods are odorless with the occasional fish smell (which I wouldn't even mind anymore). Not sure where it comes from/how to fix it. I JUST WANT IT TO END!
Your absolutely right. I've never used a tampon in my life and I'm 44.
