Menstrual blood odor is caused by anal bacteria (from feces) which feed on the blood cells and tissue (blood clots). The vagina is made into an alkaline environment by uterine secretions, blood and cells making it an ideal environment for fecal bacteria to thrive. Helpful bacteria create lactic acid in the vagina when a woman is not menstruating. Fecal bacteria cannot thrive in an acidic environment.
Thanks for sharing. I honestly can't understand the reaction of some of the others here. That's not particularly gross.

Honestly it is yucky and even while being female, I never heard of that but honestly, there are more disgusting things than that!

I'm lucky my bf doesn't mind me talking about it and cheers me up when it hurts. I guess some are more mature than others.

Smelling their by-products is certainly unpleasant, but knowing where the smell comes from is not gross. It is neutral. It's just yet another piece of information.

That's probably it.

ohhh man, i have a phobia of vomiting, too! luckily, i've been on the pill since i was 15 or so so i've never had terrible issues with that time of the month.. i do have a friend who vomits and feels like pure asshole casserole when she's on her period, but she feels much better and has no problems if she's taking birth control.. maybe you should look into that?

That could work but i dont quite think i need a birth control pill.could it be because i took a different tablet other than feminax(an anadin tablet)?God i hate vomiting so much,im so picky about having meat cooked properly and not eating shellfish i driv everyone mad.

i'm the same way! i'm such a picky eater, i never eat anything new because i'm afraid it could upset my stomach, haha... and your right, if you've never puked before while you were on your period, then you taking another medication instead of the usual could have caused the vomiting.. i hope it doesn't happen to ya next time! :(

Just a bit off topic. Sorry.

Has anyone else noticed a little weight gain on BCPs after being assured by so called professionals that this particular product would have no side effects? I'm not interseted in article quotes. I've read them. I'd really like to jear from people with similar experiences.

i know a lot of girls who noticed that! i don't even remember if i gained weight or not.. i probably did.. but my weight fluctuates like you wouldn't believe, lol.. either way, it always evens out and i wouldn't quit taking them, you'll be able to be back to normal soon enough

What brand did you take? My BCP caused no weight gain at all. This is because they contain a smaller or weaker amount of hormones.

No worries. Thanks for the feedback. I've decided to quit them completely and try a different route. At least if the weight stays on I'll know it was for some other reason.
