odor (TMI)

So the past few weeks I have had a strong not so great odor. My bladder seems to be leaking but its not my water. I dont have a UTI or a yeast infection. I have been shower none stop but I dont know what to do. Has this happend to anyone? Is there any safe products that I can use for a wash. Im sorry I know its pretty TMI but its bugging me.

Um, it could be either of those or just plain sweat. Ur body is changing a lot who knows something could have irritated u. Make an appt and explain ur concerns. I noticed since I have gain more weight that I sweat more in my vaginal area so can find myself showering twice a day depending on how hot its gotten. As for the leaky bladder I had that issue when I cough, laugh, or sneeze. Thats *****, but the panty liners help me in that area.

It's not an STD so dont freak out. It's just an overgrowth of bacteria

It could be from your soap, not washing before and after sex, or even taking bubble baths. You can get it very easily.

See I dont have a discharge, just leaking bladder. My bladder leaks from my first delivery years ago. I have noticed that I have been really hot and sweating a lot. Could it be from sweating?

It can happen with pregnancy. I got it with my first pregnancy.

It does sound like BV. I experienced the same thing. Call your doctor so they take of that.

As someone who has experienced BV, that was my immediate thought too.  Your gyno can do a quick swab to make sure and then give you medication.  Usually just a vaginal insert that melts and takes care of it within a couple days.

Sounds like you have Bacterial Vaginosis. The only way to cure it is to get a perscription from your Doctor.

It can be very embarrassing, so it best to have it taken care of immediately. If left untreated it can cause issues for your baby and possible Bladder infections.

Good luck Sweetie
