NASTY NASTY NASTY!!!

Ok... this is by far the worst thing possible that could EVER happen to a girl!! Ever since i was 13 i have been havin an odor coming from my underwear. It smells like B.O. I'm not a nasty person that does not bath or is not clean by no means. I am just so sick of it! I go to bed crying and praying that it will go away. The smell is not there all the time. It jus depends on if it is hot or what i'm doing. I know it is sweat because that's what it smells like when people sweat, but why in the **** would it come from "down there"?? I just want it to go away! It is SO VERY embarrassing!! I'm always worried I smell like it. I go to the bathroom all day just to see if i do! And then i dont want people goin in the bathroom after me because i dont want them to smell it. And what guy is going to want to do anything when it smells like B.O down there!?!?!?! Please Please Please give any helpful advice you know, or what it could be from. And i have tried putting deodorant down there, change my underwear, wear cotton underwear, EVERYTHING! But nothing works! HELPME PLEASE!!!

I have the same problem. I have an odor from the vagina and the rear. But I think it I smell it more when I use the lady's room or if I sweat, or didn't pat dry thoroughly well or if I somewhere where it's extremely hot like if I am baking, cooking using the oven, or standing near the drier. Believe me I bathe up to 4 times a day, still I see no good results. I even tried avoiding eating or drinking fluids just so that I will not have to go to the lady's room and that seems to help , ..except when I sweat. But I read a book, Home Remedies. That before you bathe, have your bathtub ( halfway ) filled with water and add a cup of tomato juice. Sit for about 15 minutes and than bathe as usual ( of course with new clean water ) or shower using a strong perfume soap. This should remove the odor. I have not tried yet but planned too. But I am also learning, so I will take some of the advices here. Believe me it has ruined my life and I am afraid to step out of my house. I am a mother and I am concerned  I hope this helps will use this home remedy and will come back later to post the news at how well did it work. good luck to everyone even me. =)

Hey girl, I know exactly what you mean..Its hard to explain to people about it because they have never experienced...Its not the "vagina" at all...i think it is coming from the groin area after sweating..smells just like BO..NEVER had this problem until after i had my second child and gained quite a bit of weight.  I notice it pretty well after i have sweated or walked a lot. (think of arm pit smell people..not yeast smell). As i am starting to loose weight, i dont seem to notice it as much.

Eat yogurt EVERYDAY and take triple chlorophyll get it at GNC - didnt spell it right- that cleans you from the inside.Make a very big difference in just less than a week!!!  Breat too!  Also BO smell is probably just that. Sweating and from your butt, too. I put deodorant inside my thighs right at my panty lines  and on my butt- crack and hole then use real baby powder- like the cornstarch kind - not the cheap store brand- use Johnson's .  I use Dry Idea roll on.

I do not know if you still have this problem but I clean using icecubes. Everytime I shower, I place at least four or five icecubes inside there and by the time I finish showering, they have melted, the first time I did this, very nasty things were coming out as the ice was metling. This has worked for me and I love it coz i do not stink and my panties remain dry and clean. I have no idea if it causes any health concers though. Try it and give feed back. Good luck!
