Most vaginal odor and vaginal discharge is caused by an infection called "gardnerella" which causes bacterial vaginosis. While this infection can be passed between partners, it is not a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is one of the leading causes of vaginal odor. This odor may become more pronounced after having intercourse and often has a fishy vaginal odor. This is the most common type of vagina odor and vaginal smell. No one fully understands the cause of bacterial vaginosis. BV is associated with an imbalance in the bacteria that is normally found in a woman's vagina. The vagina normally contains mostly "good" bacteria and fewer "harmful" bacteria (candida albicans). BV develops when there is a change in the environment of the vagina that causes an increase in harmful bacteria. Bacterial Vaginosis involves the loss of the normal lactobacilli bacteria and the growth of pathologic anaerobic bacteria.www.ProductReview.com.au
