Vaginal/Perineal Odor
by Camryn, Oct 15, 2007 10:39AM
I have a problem in my groin area, heavy sweating, pungent odor. I am a very clean person, but I can't seem to put my finger on why I smell everyday after thoroughly washing. I have been to every dr. know to man for two years and no relief and no support. I work in a office in close proximity with my coworkers who wonder will they ever get relief. I've been researching intertrigo. What dr. should I see about getting throughly checked out. I feel like I am in the five items or less line when seeing my dr.

Could it be bacterial vaginosis? That has a weird smell, but different than a yeast infection.

I've been cleared for BV and all STD's, three times actually. Yeast is the only thing that is in agreement with the symptoms.

intertrigo has a terrible odor usually if bacteria is present. a dermatologist would be your best bet but they are usually booked up forever and very expensive. your general practitioner should be able to offer you some relief.
