Well, oiliness of my scalp is normal for me. If I go a day without washing, my hair gets very oily. Three days, and my hair is extremely oily, which is why I wash every day. On the NuvaRing, my scalp and face dried out. I had normal skin instead of oily skin. That's why some teenage girls take birth control--to solve acne problems. Birth control dries out the skin so that acne goes away.

I continued to wash every day because that was my routine. When I went swimming in Mexico, I washed twice a day because I was washing out the chlorine, so it must have freaked out my scalp with the birth control hormones, chlorine, and constant washing.

Now that I'm back to my oily skin, the smell went away. So I wonder if the yeast proliferates on drier skin? Maybe it was bacteria? Since I pump out so much oil on my skin, I probably wash out the bacteria or yeast from the pores with the oils. That's the protective factor of oil, anyways. My natural balance of yeast and bacteria on my skin was probably restored. Skin should be moist so that there aren't any breaks to let in bacteria.

Maybe that's why the smell stopped, or maybe it was more due to stress and hormones. When we stress out, we pump out hormones through the air. That's why animals can smell fear on us. Most of us can't smell those types of hormones, but maybe our stress is causing us to smell terribly. The problem is to lower stress, and when you stress out about how you smell after an incident has already occurred, it's tough to break that fear cycle. It took me a while to get over it, and now I realize that some of the smells that I now think I'm smelling are imagined. It might be slight smells that only I can smell since I'm so paranoid. It will probably take me another month to get over my paranoia since it took about a month for the synthetic hormones to break down.
