I was reading the articles and I can relate to yours the most.
I can agree with the comedian Ricky Smiley and his video called (nobody told me nothing) because nobody told me nothing about this Menopause.
I am an African American woman, and my mother‘s parents died when they were young; therefore my mother grew up to believe that menopause was wrong and (do not talk about it), so I grew up in the dark. Now I am in my 50 and I am just now learning that a woman’s uterus can fall and the pelvic wall can go wrong. HELP! Yes I have an odor now, and I hate it; it took me 6 years to know what was wrong.
In the beginning I thought other people bathrooms had a smell, I was in their bathrooms scrubbing.
Until my daughter’s mother said to me after a visit to her home-she said (I have plenty of bathtubs and that I was welcome to use one) I didn’t know what she was talking about because I am a person who takes 2 to 3 showers a day. My little granddaughter always tells me” Grand mom” you smell like boo boo. This hurts because of my uterus I smell the same in the front and back; because I suffer from fecal incontinence and urinary incontinence. I am going to a doctor next week for this problem. I don’t have the good insurance either, but the Obama medicade will pay for this.
Hope this helps someone.
