A member asked:
If there is a "smell" in the vaginal area before your period... is that normal or no?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Past history 2 guide: Use your past menstrual history as a guide to determine if this is normal for you. If every month you have some vaginal odor around the time of your cycle then this may be normal for you. If you have never had this before then it may signal an infection such as bacterial vaginosis.
