The lower part, referring to the perineum, always has an odor that may be caused by uncleanliness of the perineum and does not require treatment. If it is caused by vulvovaginal pseudofilamentous yeast disease, cervicitis and other diseases, you need to use medication according to the cause of the disease.
1. Unclean perineum: If the perineum is not cleaned properly, it will lead to the collection of local dirt, which may cause odor and can be left untreated. It is recommended that you can wash the perineum with water, change the underwear in time every day, and keep the perineum clean and dry.
2. Vulvovaginal pseudomycosis: Vulvovaginal pseudomycosis will appear white curd-like or tofu scum-like discharge, accompanied by odor. Women who have had sex can be treated with antifungal suppositories such as clotrimazole suppositories and miconazole suppositories as prescribed by the doctor.
