Natural Cures For Bacterial Vaginosis - Get Rid Of Fishy Vaginal Odor Fast

By:


Sometimes, being a woman is hard! As if having monthly periods, going through pregnancy, childbirth and the menopause weren't enough, most women at some point in their lives will suffer from the very unpleasant condition called bacterial vaginosis. It can be difficult enough to suffer from any medical problem, but as far as bacterial vaginosis is concerned, this can be an extremely embarrassing condition as at it's peak, the fishy vaginal odor can be noticeable by family members, work colleagues and even casual acquaintances.

Fortunately, it is a relatively simple condition to treat and there are several good natural cures for bacterial vaginosis which can set you on the road to recovery.

Firstly, you could try using probiotic natural yogurt. This contains beneficial bacteria of the same strain as that which is present in the vagina. This bacteria helps to maintain the healthy pH level of the vagina, an imbalance of which is what causes bacterial vaginosis. It can either be eaten daily or some women find that soaking a tampon in the yogurt and inserting it into the vagina for a couple of hours can be very helpful

Other excellent natural cures for bacterial vaginosis include tea tree oil and cider vinegar. Both can be added to the bath, but not together, it may be worth trying both on separate occasions to see which is the most effective to you. For tea tree oil, add 10-12 drops to a warm bath. For cider vinegar, a couple of cupfuls. Additionally, some women swear by using tea tree oil pessaries directly in the vagina as this delivers a powerful antibacterial dose of the oil directly where it is needed.

For symptomatic treatment, try using a wrapped ice-pack directly on the vaginal area as this will be very soothing. In addition, to mask the unpleasant fishy vaginal odor somewhat, try wearing a thin panty pad during the day, as this will absorb some of the smell and can be regularly changed.

Although not dangerous, bacterial vaginosis is very unpleasant and if left untreated for a lengthy period can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease and even infertility. Prompt treatment is therefore always advisable.
