Despite all the period hacks and good stuff about periods, all females will evolve to the point that the monthly phase of menstruation is difficult and it gets absolutely difficult to deal with so several points all at the same time.
The mood swings, period cramps, hunger, and extra poop gives a really tough time to the PMSing lady. And if that wasn't sufficient, we have to deal with the scent of the period blood as well!
Sometimes the foul smell becomes strong and obvious too, followed by backaches and acne. Below are the major reasons why the period blood smells a little stingy:
#1 pH balance
During menstruation, the pH level rises, thus causing the blood less acidic. This happens in the growth of bacteria down there and eventually the smelling of the period blood.
#2 Bacteria
There are indications of the appearance of bacteria and fungus around the uterus lining during the period. Since it's the uterus lining which gets shed during menstruation, the blood might smell. Also, if the blood stays for long in the uterus, chances are high it will smell stronger.
#3 Moisture retention
During the period, the moisture gets engaged in the v@gina which can sometimes lead to fungal infections. This leads to fishy smell near the v@ginal area adding to the bad odor.
#4 Air blockage in sanitary pads and tampons
The constant air blockage by tampons and sanitary napkins near the genitalia are a major reason of bad odor.
#5 D0uche
Some women believe in d0uching during menstruation, but in many cases, quick showering of water to get rid of the smell hasn't proved to be a healthy decision. Period cramps are savage, and they are bad enough to turn a loving woman into a devil for those 5 days.
Here are the major reasons why the period blood smells a bit pungent. So eat, relax and exercise a bit during your period days and before you know, you're a free bird for another month!
