What Causes Foul Vaginal Odor After Workout?
Question: I have a strange smell coming from my vagina. Smells kind of like a fart. No unusual discharge. Initially thought it happened after my workouts, but now im noticing it during various times of the day and I can smell myself when I stand up. What could this be? Could I have forgotten a tampon or maybe a condom stuck in there. It's been over a month since I use either.
Brief Answer:
Vaginal infection likely.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
A foul smell from vagina that you have described is suggestive of a bacterial infection. It can be due to a left over tampon, condom or a bacterial vaginosis. It is best to get it examined by a gynecologist and get a vaginal swab culture done fro proper antibiotics that are needed for treatment.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
