Vaginal odor can be due to a sexually transmitted disease like trichomonas or trich, yeast infection, or bacterial vaginosis. Try these home remedies for vaginal odor -

  • Douche your vagina with a mixture of vinegar and water in equal proportions. This will help to eliminate the unpleasant vaginal odor.


     
  • Add 2-3 drops of tea tree oil in a cup of water. Apply this water to the vaginal area to reduce the odor.
  • If yeast infection or bacterial infection is the cause for your vaginal odor then add some yoghurt in your diet for acidophilus.


    You can even take acidophilus supplements.
  • Always remind your partner to wear a condom while having sex and avoid any sexually transmitted diseases.
  • Keep your vagina dry and clean. Avoid wearing synthetic clothing; instead wear clean dry comfortable cotton panties.
  • Avoid scratching. Try wearing boxer shorts while sleeping at night for better air circulation.
    If the odor lingers for long time and is accompanied by itching or scratching then consult a specialist to diagnose the exact cause for the problem.
