My boyfriend can smell an odor, but I can't... Please help!

I am hoping someone can help. I have been dating my boyfriend for 6 months, and he has just confessed to me that whenever we have sex he smells a fishy smell. He says it has been like this the entire time we have been dating. I can not smell anything...also after sex, I usually bleed alittle, which has never happened to me with other partners before. I don't know what to do, I have done some research on line, and dont think I have BV, cuz I can't smell a fishy odor, is it possible that i can't smell my own odor? If anyone has any advice, I would really appreciate it.

First thing go to the doctor , secondly it may be an inside problem, if he is telling you that its because he actually smell it, I sweat badly in that area and after my regular pap and HiV test proves to be okay  I use the vaginal gentle feminine wash by equate or eve, Equate is cheaper but has same ingrediants in it.


Good luck but get to doctor first and I gave the best advice I knew how to give and I hope it helps.
