The vagina has been very cleverly designed to maintain its own cleanliness through the production of discharge. This is usually white or clear and may change in appearance and texture throughout a woman’s monthly cycle. If you notice any new odour that is offensive or your discharge appears green or yellow or this is accompanied by genital itching you should speak to a doctor for advice.

If you’re not sure about what you’ve got or think you need treatment, you should consult your healthcare professional for advice and get a definitive diagnosis rather than just assume you have one or the other of these annoyances. Both fungus and bacteria naturally live in your vagina, but when the fungus Candida albicans increases, it can cause thrush.

The menopause is a natural part of ageing that usually occurs between 45 and 55 years of age, as a woman’s oestrogen levels decline. In the UK, the average age for a woman to reach the menopause is 51.

Consult a healthcare professional: If you have persistent or severe symptoms, it’s recommended to consult a healthcare professional or gynecologist for further evaluation and guidance. The vagina also contains an abundance of naturally occurring bacteria that are there to offer protection against harmful bacteria. Bacteria also help to maintain the delicate pH balance. When this balance of bacteria is disturbed this can lead to common infections such as bacterial vaginosis (BV) and thrush. How do you keep your intimate areas healthy? Restores and maintains an optimal vaginal pH level to promote a healthy vaginal flora and prevent thrush from recurring.You should also always try to keep yourself healthy by eating a balanced diet and getting regular exercise. This includes regularly engaging in pelvic floor exercises. With daily use Balance Activ Intimate Soothing Cream helps to leave the sensitive, delicate skin of your intimate areas feeling refreshed, comfortable and calm. If the cause of your itching or irritation is dry skin Balance Active Intimate Soothing Cream is a natural alternative to Vagisil to help calm irritated skin. Cleanse the area: Start by cleaning the intimate area with a mild, pH-balanced cleanser and warm water. Gently pat dry with a towel.

Some women find symptoms of bacterial vaginosis are most noticeable after sex. This is likely to be from having unprotected sex with a male partner since semen is alkaline and sometimes upsets that slightly acidic vaginal pH that your body needs to have. If this is the case, you can try using a condom, or even going for a pee after sex can help. Sometimes antibioticsthemselves can trigger thrush and BV, by affecting both the harmful and the good bacteria, such as lactobacillusin the vagina. While you’re taking antibiotics that affect you this way, it could be worth trying an acidifying gel, such as Balance Activ which helps to maintain the bacterial balance within the vagina, and encourages the good bacteria to grow. Balance Activ Intimate Soothing Cream Soothes fast whilst protecting and restoring. It is ideal for daily moisturising and safe for use on sensitive skin.Our menopause products are specifically formulated to accommodate all stages of the menopause. This is important as typically the pH of the vagina increases from pre to post menopause. Once the woman knows what she is dealing with, and if antibiotics are not required or recommended, then home treatment may be the way she prefers to deal with it. BV – if you’ve got a fishy smelling discharge that’s thin and watery, possibly greyish, then you’ve probably got BV. Anti Malaria Malaria is a serious tropical disease spread by mosquitoes. If it isn’t diagnosed and treated promptly, it can be fatal. A single mosquito bite is all it takes for someone to become infected. Symptoms of malaria It’s important to be aware of the symptoms of malaria if you’re travelling to areas where there’s a high risk of the disease. Symptoms include: 1. A high temperature of 38C or above 2. Feeling hot and shivery 3. Headaches 4. Vomiting 5. Muscle pains 6. Diarrhoea Symptoms usually appear between 7 and 18 days after becoming infected, but in some cases the symptoms may not appear for up to a year, or occasionally even longer. When to seek medical attention Seek medical help immediately if you develop symptoms of malaria during or after a visit to an area where the disease is found. You should still seek medical help even if it’s several weeks, months or a year after you return from travelling. If there’s a possibility you have malaria, a blood test will be carried out to confirm whether or not you’re infected. You should receive the results of your blood test on the same day. If you have malaria, treatment will… Perfumed or harsh ‘ intimate washing’. Your vagina is self-cleaning. If all of your micro-organisms are in balance, there’s no need to meddle with it. In fact, douching or using perfumed products down there can alter the natural balance with your vagina and actually cause BV. This is sometimes a vicious cycle. With one of the most common symptoms of bacterial vaginosis being a fishy smell, women tend to reach for the perfumed washes or douches to try and get rid of that smell, but in doing so they are actually making the problem worse. For this same reason, don’t add perfumed oils or soaps, or any ‘antibacterial’ or disinfectant products to your bath water.
