This may sound kinda weird...But please
read I have this strange
vaginal odor....It's very very strong and
smells exactly like raw onions. It's very
unpleasant. Now I have heard that eating
onions can make your vaginal secretions
smell/taste differently, but I have not
eaten any onions in the past while. The
only thing I can think of is, in the
summer time when me and my boyfriend went
to his lake, I was chopping up onions for
dinner (which I did not eat any of by the
way) and it was like just inhaling the
scent or something made me have the same
vaginal odor. It went away after a week
or so. Well a couple weeks ago, for the
first time since then, I was chopping up
onions at work, and now all of a sudden
the odor is back, and has been there for
about a week and a half or so and I would
say I have cut up onions 4 times since
then, so I am thinking that may be why
it's not going away. I have showered and
washed numerous times, I don't have any
sign of an infection of any
kind....Everything is normal except for
the odor. Does anyone have any idea? I
just got my period today, so we will see
how things are afterwards...But I am
thinking about just leaving the onions
next time for someone else to cut, but
this is disgusting and I am so embarrassed
and don't even want to have sex with my
boyfriend anymore. please let me know,
thanks!

When I was younger, every time I ate
"famous amos" cookies, my cudda would
smell like cookies!! I kid you not.
Man, i'm not sure what to tell you, except
stay away from the onions. I mean, I know
I don't eat those cookies anymore!!!!!

Diet Related... Or Soaking Up the Onion? Posted: 10-29-06 22:22pm
Somethings that you come in contact with
is sorta how you'll smell... Or taste...
You said that you didn't eat it and you
claim that the smell comes from down
under. But do you think that it might
just be your hands? It takes forever to
wash off the sent of onions on the hand...
But I wouldn't know how it is in your
case. I am sorry for not quiet
understanding if I got it wrong but I can
give some advice that may help... Not
sure cause I am no doctor so by all means
do what you want all I can give is
that after being in contact with the
"onions of doom" you should try to have
fruits such as strawberries.... They can
help possibley change the odor and taste
away from sour oniony to a sweeter type.
If anything also try to avoid onions and
if you still have the problem then maybe
it is something other than the onions that
make you smell that way... Perhaps it
could be something that is in your diet.
Either way good luck with figuring out
what it is...
You're really brave for sharing... so no hard
feelings... It's good to seek help
