Vaginal Odour

Hello,
I'm having a problem with vaginal odour and am looking for a way to get rid of it. For approximately the last 6 months I've noticed that had a b.o. (body odoour) smell coming from my vagina. Actually the smell is generally strongest from my underwear, but if I change them then the smell is back in a short time period. I don't smell right after showering, but when I start to smell usually depends on what I'm doing during the day. I've never had this problem before and don't smell anywhere else. I shower at least once a day (more if I smell down there) and change my underwear frequently. There's no discharge, however my underwear is damp enough to be considered wet. I've tried shaving all hair so that there's nothing for the smell to attach to, and I also wash very thoroughly with soap. This all sounds so disgusting I know, but I just want it to go away! Any help is greatly appreciated!

A bleach bath???? are you nuts?? I just hope that noone has acctually done it... Do not use anything on your body that is not meant to be used on it!! I cant believe some people are so dumb... the chemicals in home products can cause cancer and all kinds of other problems!! Dont believe everything this other phychos are writing here!!

You say eat fruit only. Too bad fruit is loaded with sugar, and though its natural it often exacerbates the problem down there as too much sugar causes yeast and candida. Sorry to say, but youre leading these girls down the wrong path.

Great  to get your ideas. This ammonia and bleaching of the cotton gusset has been a real mystery to me. I am going back to the doc. I am from Edinburgh, Scotland and a bit disturbed by the shocking judgemental comments from jana911 above. God needs help here! Anyway, every best wish to you all,
