This is so embarrassing..
For a while now my vagina has been
smelling nasty :[. It's whenever I open my
legs, I can smell it, so others can,
right?
I haven't had sex yet, so any ideas waht
this could be?
I'm too nervous to see a doctor.
Thanks
Jayme

Hmm...I'm more than sure all vaginas
smell. Mine does I wasn't worried
about it until my boyfriend wanted to "go
down" on me...then it became a major
issue. I can smell mine when I open my
legs as well. However, I have made a
visit to the gynecologist and had a pap
smear done. Results returned and proved
nothing was wrong.
I believe its from the constant "cleaning"
of the vagina. Nothing too much to worry
about unless your discharge is different
than normal (weird odor or consistancy).
However...if someone is going to be seeing
it other than yourself all I can recommend
is making sure you bathe well It decreases the
odor to a certain extent...but theres no
getting rid of it...hope this helped

I am inclined to disagree here unless
naturally occurring cleaning of the body
was implied ......myself ...If ever I
detect an odor on my own as while seated
to pee, I know it is a matter of time
before my virgo may get wind of me . I
chose to doosh and use an over the counter
cleaning agent made for this purpose but
have used plain water my biggest thing and
I never smell me this way is to always no
later than 48 hours clean myself after sex
if not sooner the combined fluids of my
virgo and myself will turn gamey in two
days if I do nothing and while it is not
unpleasant it just smells off and I prefer
no odor as we engage in oral sex I stay
prepared as well as I can cause he is
spontaneous and I never know with him what
he will want so even my anus is kept
fairly cleaned out ...But to each his/her
own you know your life better than any of
us ...I take alot of bathes with fragrant
bathe oils , soaps, or sometimes aroma
salts .just find a solution of keeping
cleaner that works for you and keep it a
routine and odor will never be an issue
for you ....happy bathing wazzywoman

It could be a yeast infection. Any very
strong smell should be diagnosed by a
doctor before saying "it's normal". I
advise against douching. Just go to a
doctor, an ob-gyn They are normally
very nice!

I am a guy, and shouldn't be posting here
but I believe a healthy vagina is a happy
vagina for all parties concerned...My
Physicians assistant Fiance says that
washing to aggressively with strong soaps
kill the good bacteria that live in
there(they are very lucky BTW)...And there
is a(as with all things related to women)
complicated balance going on in there...

yea yeast infection for all i know...never
bathing? unless you do but you never scrub
around your vagina...not inside...i
remember this girl at my old school who
would sit beside me and i would notice
that she would smell a bit fishy and like
poo and on those days when she opened her
legs...all hell would break loose and i
would feel like vomiting. i wouldn't know
how to get rid of it though

Do you take bubble baths? This is someting
that females should not due, if so, we
should limit how long. You may want to
stay away from deodorize bar soap, use a
mild body wash. Also you may even have a
yeast infection, try drinking plenty of
cranberry juice and lots of water. Also
eating yogurt may help. I hope this helps
a little

No. It should not be a terrible odor like
that. A fishy like smell is indicative of
an infection, like vaginosis. It will not
go away until it is treated.

trust me, it's nothing to worry about.
especially if you havent had sex yet. it
could be a yeast infection, which can be
easily gotten rid of with over the counter
medications. i'm 20, and happily married.
everybody's vagina goes through "smelly"
phases. one time, my best friend found out
she had left a tampon in there for awhile,
and that was the cause of her smelly
little issue.
so don't worry, since you're a virgin, its
almost definitely something silly and
simple.

Yeah I went through that same thing my
friend wanted that and I was No because I
thought that it was smelly. He said that
it wasn't that everybody has their own
smell. But I wasdn't comfortable with him
and his fingers down there.

Learning to love your body and realising
that it does indeed have a smell is part
of being a woman! Keep it clean, tidy, and
love it. It will still have a smell!
