Dealing with vaginal itch and odor can be uncomfortable and distressing for many women. Understanding the common causes and finding targeted effective solutions is essential for maintaining good feminine hygiene and overall intimate health.

Beauty Closet delves into the common causes of itch and odor and shows the secret of Purple Orchid extract - a star ingredient that makes it one of the best natural feminine washes you can trust.

Common Causes of Vaginal Itch and Odour:

1. Bacterial Vaginosis (BV): BV results from an imbalance of the natural bacteria in the vagina, leading to itchiness and a fishy odor. It is the most prevalent vaginal infection among women of reproductive age.
2. Yeast Infections: Caused by Candida fungus overgrowth, yeast infections can trigger itching, burning, and a thick, white discharge that can look like cottage cheese.
3. Hormonal Fluctuations: change in levels ofestrogen, progesterone and prolactin during during menstruation, pregnancy, or menopause can affect the the vagainal pH level, triggering vaginal odor and irritation. 
4. Inappropriate Intimate Hygiene Routine: Inadequate or excessive cleaning practices can disrupt the natural balance of vaginal flora, leading to odor and discomfort. 

The Star Ingredient: The Purple Orchid 

Purple Orchid extract has several properties that make it a star ingredient in feminine washes:

1. Antioxidant: The antioxidants in Purple Orchid extract can help protect the vaginal area from oxidative stress, which may contribute to inflammation and imbalances in the vaginal flora. By reducing oxidative stress, Purple Orchid extract helps promote a healthy environment for growth of ‘beneficial/good bacteria’, thereby reducing the risk of Bacterial Vaginosis and other infections.

 2. Anti-inflammatory: Inflammation can exacerbate itching and discomfort in the vaginal area. Purple Orchid extract's anti-inflammatory properties can help soothe irritation and reduce inflammation, providing relief from itchiness caused by infections or hormonal fluctuations.

3. Moisturizing: Purple Orchid extract is also known for its ability to hydrate and nourish the skin. This helps maintain the natural moisture of the intimate skin around the entire vulva, preventing itch from dryness and persevering the beauty of sensitive skin.
