Natural remedies for vaginal odor 

Vaginal odor could mean that you have a mild infection of sorts. In order to rule out this possibility, you need a medical examination. If a vaginal infection is mild, it may be cured with home remedies, but if it is long-term or deep rooted, it may require stronger medication to take care of it.


The best and permanent solution is to make some basic hygienic habits part of your daily lifestyle.

Start trimming your pubic hair, leaving no more than a quarter of an inch behind. Sometimes, excessive hair can trap effluence odors. Wear cotton panties, no synthetic ones, as these tend to trap sweat and add to odors. Wash your panties in hot water after each use, even if you have worn them for a short while. Change your panties at least twice a day, and wash with each change. Wear loose lower body clothing, avoiding tight pants or skirts that keep your thighs close all the time. Allowing your body to air out will help in getting rid of bad smells.

Another excellent remedy is to apply cool yogurt to your vaginal area. The live bacteria present in the yogurt will clear up any mild infection and absorb away any smells. Wash your genitals with vinegar every night before going to bed for at least a week. Use a mixture of one part vinegar to 12 parts warm water. These remedies should help in getting rid of the smell and help you feel clean as well.
