How Julva® can help support healthy vaginal tissue and pH
You started keto to feel better, burn fat, and get healthy. But now something smells… off. You’re not imagining it — and you’re definitely not alone.
Thousands of women have reported changes in vaginal odor and discharge when transitioning to a very low-carb or ketogenic diet. It’s real, it’s fixable, and it doesn’t mean you’re dirty.
"Your vaginal microbiome is sensitive. Major diet changes shift your gut bacteria, pH levels, and yes — how things smell."
When you drastically cut carbs, your body enters ketosis — a state where it burns fat for fuel and produces ketones. These byproducts can change the smell of your breath, sweat, and yes… vaginal secretions.
Also:
A shift in gut and vaginal flora
Increased protein or animal fat intake
Dehydration or electrolyte imbalances
High levels of ketones excreted through bodily fluids
These can all impact your vaginal pH, creating the perfect environment for funky smells or even bacterial vaginosis (BV) in sensitive women.
Strong or fishy odor
Itching or burning
Grayish or yellow discharge
Increased irritation after sex
Recurring BV or yeast infections
Note: If symptoms persist, see your provider to rule out infection.
How to Balance Your Body (and Your Crotch)
