What does it mean if you're underwear smell of ammonia?

Vaginal discharge smells like ammonia Why does my vaginal discharge smell like ammonia? Vaginal discharge that smells like ammonia is definitely not normal. The causes for ammonia smelling vaginal discharge include * infection of vaginal tract * washing your underwear with bleach * urinary tract infection Infection of vaginal tract causes ammonia like smell If bacteria infect the vaginal tract, vaginal discharge acquires an ammonia like smell. Hence, one possible cause of an ammonia smelling vaginal discharge is bacterial infection of the vaginal tract. Doctors use antibiotics to treat vaginal tract infections. Once the doctor treats the infection, the ammonia like smell will disappear. Washing your underwear with bleach can cause ammonia like smell An often overlooked cause of ammonia smelling vaginal discharge is washing your underwear with bleach. When your genital area sweats, the sweat collects on your underwear. When the sweat combines with bleach it gives rise to an ammonia like smell. If you are smelling your underwear to judge the smell of your vaginal secretions, then remember that your sweat, and not your vaginal secretions, might be causing the ammonia like smell. Try smelling your vaginal secretions directly and not the underwear, if you want to rule out whether it is the sweat that is causing the smell or the vaginal secretions.
