The keto diet advocates high fat and low carbohydrate consumption and began in the 1920s as a treatment for epilepsy. However, many people who do not have epilepsy follow the diet to lose weight. In this article, we discuss whether keto crotch is real and what else it could be. Is it real? Share on Pinterest The keto diet may be responsible for what people refer to as keto crotch. Some people notice that they have increased vaginal odor and discharge on the keto diet. Keto crotch has not been the subject of scientific investigation yet. However, it is possible that keto crotch could be bacterial vaginosis (BV). Bacteria known as lactobacilli are important in ensuring the acidic environment of the vagina, which helps to maintain the natural vaginal microbiome. BV occurs when the environment in the vagina changes, and other bacteria replace the lactobacilli. The potential hydrogen (pH) scale measures how acidic or alkaline something is. The typical vaginal pH during reproductive years is around 4.5 pH . According to an older 2007 study , a diet high in fat may cause a high vaginal pH. The study found that the participants who had a diet high in fat also had an average vaginal pH of 5.1. A vaginal pH of more than 4.5 may be an indicator of BV. The study suggests that a diet high in fat may increase the risk of bacterial infections related to BV by increasing the risk of other bacterial growth. A 2020 review reinforced the links between a diet high in fat and the occurrence of BV. However, it also noted that saturated fats may be a significant link. As the keto diet consists of consuming large amounts of fats and small amounts of carbohydrates, there may be a link between the diet and BV. A diet high in fats may change the vaginal pH, leading to an environment in which BV can occur. Symptoms It may be that keto crotch is, as yet, an undiscovered side effect of the keto diet. Keto crotch symptoms include strong smelling vaginal odor and white discharge. However, these symptoms may indicate BV. BV is the most common cause of vaginal discharge in females between 15–44 years old. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that 21.2 million females between 14–49 years of age in the United States have this condition. The symptoms of BV include : thin vaginal discharge that may look white or gray
