Strong vaginal odor, first time mom !

[Felishhh]

hey since like week 8 I have had a strong vaginal odor and usually if that happens I just douche with Apple cider vinegar and take a couple probiotics. But since I'm pregnant can I do that? Have any of U ladies experienced this? I know it isn't appealing to my boyfriend and I am currently 13 weeks. Help !!

Ok thanks guys and what is the risk of getting a UTI while pregnant? Is it also higher than normal?

[kcanario]

Definitely BV Dr will give you flagyl but the chance of a yeast infection is high.I'm dealing with that now

Yeast infection can have a smell. And yes normally itching and burning usually happens a along with it but not always whatever it may be speak to ur Dr before u do any home remedies

I thought I had vaginal odor turns out it was really because I have big thighs and I have sweat more since I have been pregnant so my thighs were just rubbing together alot and making more sweat and making me stink. But no more douche while your pregnant.

Just go to your doctor and ask trust me he would even prescribe you something if you need it

I had that issue at 16 week area...went to my doctor and she said it's BV just bacteria and have me a antibiotic for 10 days and it cleared right up. Only bad part was the medicine is known for causing a yeast infection after words so I was treated for that as well.

Thanks !!! But yeast infections shod be odorless right ?? I have no itching or burning

Nope can't do that stuff no more while pregnant. Sounds like a yeast infection which is normal to get while pregnant u need to speak with ur Dr to get the cream and antibiotic that is safe for ur baby.
