How could my vaginal secretions go from yummy to yucky?

"How could my vaginal secretions go from yummy to yucky? It’s tart, as my fiancé found out a few months ago. I checked and it’s true. I went to my gynecologist for a pelvic exam including pap smear and they are normal. I couldn’t bring myself to ask such an embarrassing question, face-to-face.

Help, we can’t bear the thought of doing without this pleasure. What’s wrong with me?"

ANSWER:

Yes, you certainly don’t want to give up this oh-so-satisfying part of sex. So, here are some suggestions.

If you’ve checked with your doctor and are certain there’s no infection of any kind, you can experiment with simple, specific additions to your diet to help balance your body’s system:

1. Eat plain yogurt with active bacteria, look for brands that have a symbol saying "live & active culture"

2. Drink cranberry juice – the unsweetened kind from health food stores is better if you can get it

3. Drink a glass of water with the juice of half a lemon in it every morning

Don’t douche with preparations from pharmacies — "feminine hygiene" products — they’re bad for you. Simply rinse your vagina with warm water, wash your outer lips, perineum, etc. with very mild soap.

Also, even though you don’t show signs of a yeast infection, you may have an internal imbalance with candida albicans — an overgrowth of yeast within the body. You can find out more about this very common condition at:

and, of course, with a Google search.
