I’ve been perimenopausal for a few years. For about the last year my vulva has not smelt as delightful as it once did.
I started HRT about 9 months ago, but it didn’t help with the smell.
I was using vaginal oestrogen, but it didn’t help the smell either and gave me thrush so I discontinued it.
I’ve tried a BV treatment but that didn’t help the smell either.
Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution please?
I wash every day with plain water, no soaps or perfumes, just as I have done for many years, so it isn’t caused by a reaction to products.
I have a smear test coming up and don’t want the nurse to recoil in horror.
