Hormonal : This may be hormonal, or vitamin deficiency. Do, you have any burning, redness, swelling or any other symptom? Your doctor can help you figure out why this is happening.

Sour taste: I suggest that you consider visiting an endocrinologist who may help with a diagnosis. Enough information surrounding your concern was not provided. Many women have unique experiences concerning hormones and their monthly cycle. You may want to create a log for a few months of your different sensations and discuss this with your md.
