Vaginal Odor?

I think that the hormonal changes can cause dryness which can lead to odor. I noticed odor a few hours after showering so I started using replens or vitamin e suppositories and it seems to have solved the issue. Hope that helps:

It doesn't surprise me that a person's body odor would change with taking medicine. How much water do you drink a day? Water with lemon is my go-to drink most of the time, even in restaurants, it's what I order. I drink many glasses of it a day. Every once in awhile, tho, I get a craving for soda or lemonade and will drink that for a day instead of water and I notice a difference in the way I smell. Not just the privates, but I think in the way I sweat, too, the overall body odor. So, if you don't drink lots of water, consider upping the intake and look at other type things you eat to consider if it makes any difference, eating more veggies and fruits may help.

I've been on tamoxifen since 11/2014 and notices vaginal wetness almost immediately. I mentioned it to both my oncologist and gynecologist. The gynecologist prescribed a topical cream and the oncologist looked on his pc and indicated this was prevalent in a small percents of women using tamoxifen. Now, I'm experiencing a not too pleasant odor with the wetness. I thought it was from wearing Poise regularly so I stopped for a while. I think it's the tamoxifen. I use apple cider vinegar to keep it tame.

Did she do a urine test to see if you had a bladder infection? In my experience, that can cause your urine to smell wonky.

I have found that menopause gave me a strong case of "dog nose". I seem to smell everything more intensely than I did before, especially body odors.

I switched to tamoxifen from Femara last September and almost immediately noticed the strong urine smell, like I'm on a steady diet of asparagus. I take chlorophyll twice a day now, and that helps kick it down a fair amount. Really have to go the extra mile with keeping myself clean - have always showered daily, but still have to take additional care, including changing my underpants partway through the day sometimes.

Could it be bacterial vaginosis? That can be found with a simple test, even at the walk-clinic or, more likely, urgent care. I see you say you've been tested for everything. Maybe ask again about this. When I went into menopause suddenly, literally from one month to the next..full menopause, that kicked off bv with a vengeance. Overshare but every web site out there will tell you, it's more of a fishy smell. Strong antibiotics by mouth or suppositories clears it up. Don't be freaked by websites that say it is hard to clear up. I've found that so not to be true.

Many issues with vaginal atrophy (lovely, and sexist, name), which happens quickly when we're put quickly into menopause or head into menopause quickly. It's ramped up much quicker than with natural menopause and causes way more issues.
