Stress, fatigue, short nights, lack of exercise… Many small everyday factors can disrupt your vaginal flora. The result? Persistent wetness, heavier discharge, and a stronger odor. This is often a sign of an excessive accumulation of harmful bacteria. The solution? Restore the balance: monitor your lifestyle, avoid harsh washing, and consult a doctor if necessary.
Too much sweat? The heat doesn’t help…
In summer, between tight skirts, long days, and synthetic clothing, our intimate area can quickly turn into a mini-sauna. Sweat accumulates, bacteria proliferate, and odors intensify. To limit this, opt for cotton underwear, avoid tight pants, and remember to change after exercise or a long day in the sun. And, of course, gentle washing with a pH-balanced product is essential.
Some treatments can completely disrupt everything.
Antibiotics, dietary supplements (especially those containing protein or omega-3 fatty acids), and even certain medications can disrupt the body’s natural balance. Sometimes, the effect is subtle: a slight change in the sense of smell, a feeling of a slight and unusual shift. Again, there’s no need to worry as long as it’s only occasional. If the phenomenon persists or is accompanied by other symptoms (irritation, abnormal discharge, etc.), a prompt consultation with a doctor will put your mind at ease.
