My menstrual blood has a strong fishy odor.

It's an odor that can occur when blood oxidizes, but if the foul smell is severe, you should suspect vaginitis or bacterial overgrowth in the uterus. Proper ventilation and hygiene are important.

생리혈 자체는 냄새가 거의 없으나 배출 후 세균과 만나 냄새가 납니다.

  • 원인: 생리대 장시간 착용, 질염(트리코모나스 등), 습열 체질
  • 교체: 양이 적더라도 2~3시간마다 생리대를 교체해야 세균 증식을 막습니다.
  • 한약: 습열(축축하고 뜨거운 기운)을 제거하면 냄새와 가려움이 줄어듭니다.
💡 면 생리대

화학 흡수체가 냄새를 악화시킬 수 있습니다. 순면 생리대를 사용하거나 탐폰/생리컵을 고려해 보세요.
