Why do women have bad body odor during menstruation?

During the menstrual period, the various bacteria that originally grew in the female vagina will be destroyed by the flowing blood and endometrial tissue, producing an unpleasant odor. At the same time, because the blood condenses in the female pubic hair area, the odor is aggravated. To reduce the bother of this odor, you can change sanitary napkins or tampons frequently and wipe your private parts frequently with unscented feminine disinfectant wipes. But remember not to use any brand of sanitary napkins and tampons that contain deodorant or fragrance, as they will inevitably cause allergies and irritation and itching.

When I laugh a little bit I pee, is this a bad sign?

Don't worry - the fact that you can still feel this and control it means you're far from needing adult diapers. This situation is not a special phenomenon. A survey of women aged 18-30 found that 12% of women had mild compulsive incontinence, meaning they had mild urinary incontinence when laughing, coughing, sneezing or exercising. But if this happens frequently, it means something is not right, it is probably caused by insufficient strength of the urethra and bladder sphincter.

If the muscles of these two tissues are not exercised in time, this phenomenon may become more and more serious.

All you need now is to focus on tightening the muscles of your pelvic tissue. Tighten the muscles in your lower body and count from 1 to 5, then relax them and count from 1 to 10. Do 5 to 10 sets each time, four times a day. If you want to confirm whether you are doing it with the right strength and method, you can try it with an internal tampon. Insert the tampon into your vagina and it should not come out easily when you tighten the muscles of your pelvic tissue. In addition, you should pay attention to avoiding foods containing caffeine and artificial sweeteners in your diet. Both of these substances will irritate the bladder and make the muscles of the bladder tissue weak.

Sometimes I get a headache during sex, is this a serious illness?

It is not uncommon for women to suddenly experience a headache just before reaching orgasm during sex.

If this condition occurs frequently, it is recommended to take a prescription anti-inflammatory analgesic called indomethacin to relieve symptoms.

I have small bumps in the folds of my vulva and they are painful, what is this?

First, see a gynecologist to make sure they are not herpes. But it sounds more like a fatty cyst, which are small particles that grow due to blockage of glands in the subcutaneous fat layer of the human body. They usually disappear after a few days. You can use hot compresses or hot baths to make them disappear quickly. If the number of small particles increases, you can apply some antibiotic ointment, wear loose underwear to ensure ventilation of the lower body, or sleep naked at night.

What causes menstrual diarrhea?

At the beginning of the menstrual period, the female body secretes a large amount of prostaglandins. This hormone stimulates the contraction of the uterus and the intestinal tissue, causing diarrhea. Therefore, women can take some ibuprofen-like analgesics during their menstrual period, which can not only relieve diarrhea symptoms, but also relieve dysmenorrhea.
