I've been on birth control pills for nine days now and I've noticed this icky smell coming from my vagina, is that normal?? I hate it, I'm coming off it now, I missed a pill 2day I only went on it with the hope of it helping me to gain weight. But man I hate that odor, what can I do to flush my system to get this odor out, if not how long will it take for it to leave on it's own since I've not been on the pill that long?? Please help and quick

Candida albicans is a common yeast found in our digestive system and throat, when we are exposed to anti-biotics, birth control pills, corti-steroids, or prednisone the good bacteria which normally keep candida under control in our systems are killed off and the candida can overgrow. When the candida yeast gets out of control, it morphs into a mycelial fungal form, becomes invasive and grows rhizoids which then burrow into our intestinal wall. These rhizoids leave microscopic holes in the intestinal wall which allows toxins in the form of undigested food particles, bacteria and yeast into our blood stream. When this condition occurs the overgrowth is called Candidiasis or a systemic yeast infection.

Here are some tips to help:

Use vaginal creams or suppositories, such as Monistat and Gyne-Lotrimin. If you get a vaginal yeast infection when you take an antibiotic or BCPs, use one of these over-the-counter products during and/or after the period of antibiotic treatment.

Limit your intake of sugar and foods that contain sugar. Sugar promotes the growth of yeast.

Eat yogurt and/or take an over-the-counter product that contains live cultures of lactobacillus acidophilus.

Take showers, not baths. Avoid bubble baths.

Keep the vagina as clean and dry as possible.

Wear cotton or cotton-lined underwear.

Don’t wear tight and constricting garments (girdles, tight blue jeans, etc.).

Wear knee-highs instead of panty hose, if possible. When you wear panty hose, wear ones with cotton crotches.

If it doesn't go away with these tips and over the counter products, talk to your gynecologist or health care professional.
