So I know it is normal for the vagina to have some sort of normal smell. But say I'm sitting down putting socks on and my legs are open or whatever the case may be, I can smell it, not ridiculously strong, but I can still smell it. Is something wrong with me?? Would my ob-gyn be able to tell me about this?
Are you having sex? any discolored or white discharge? do you use scented stuff? does it burn when you pee? there's alot of things that could cause this. PH balance has a big factor. You could have an infection. I noticed your other thread about an Orgasm cleaning the vagina, you're not supposed to flush out the inside of your vagina because it washes away good bacteria. use just warm water and a mild soap, prefferably unscented, drink more water.
it's perfectly normal to be able to smell your own scent in those circumstances. doesn't necessarily mean anything's wrong.
I would drink kombucha (prevents and fights infections) and eat more veggies. I've been drinking kombucha for 6 months straight and my fluids smell great and haven't had an infection (crosses fingers). Kombucha has active probotics. You can get it at Wholefoods or natural food stores. I get mine from a friend. She grows it. A lot of people grow it. I'd suggest buying it locally if you can.
I've been putting yogurt pops up miss puss for freshening. Works for me, then again, I don't know what your smelling. If it's fishy, then puddin' pops probably won't work - the smell of yogurt and fish is NASTY. But, raspberry yogurt and fish is quite aromatic. Anyway, I'd get that checked. You're doc can tell you if you are alright and might even suggest pops up the puss. I'm tellin' ya, it works.
I'm not teasing. I'm serious. I've used them myself when I've had 'troubles'. Have you not given the ol' tried and true test of the yogurt pop?
No infection? What then is your strategy to be infection free? I somehow doubt your not telling us the truth. We've all had a little cheese on our taco.
well, let me throw my dick into all these pussies. (pun intented!) here is my view on this matter. if you smell bad down there, that is one hell of a turn off to us guys! why not ask a friend to smell your southern region and tell you if you stink or not. i would do that for a friend (female or male.) if asked, and tell them the truth. a real friend is someone who tells you when you have a booger hanging out of your nose. i would want someone to tell me if my cock and balls stunk. i don't want to subject anyone to that! before i have sex with anyone, i always ask that we shower together so we can both advoid that pitfall. everyone smells down there; both us guys and you gals. thats normal. like others have said here... if you have discharges, pain, sores, etc. you need to go to the doc and have that checked out. i at one time had pain peeing, i went to the doc right away; turn out i had a bladder infection. i was worried i might have had something like a dose of the clap. i hope it is nothing major for you too.
Liquid Chlorophyl will deorderize the whole body.. drink two glass of water with a tablespoon of liquid chlorophyl in it a day.. your feet, underarms nor your privates will smell bad as long as your using the liquid Chlorophyl.. it also gives you energy and make you feel good all over. It under $10.00 for a whole month or more supply. I have never had an infection 'down there' either, nor have I had any STD or crabs or lice or any creepy crawlies. I have been lucky. Having sex with cause an odor, It's the dead sperm that make bacteria or perhaps a 'dirty dick' will cause an infection.. Douching with the chlorophyl will remove any odor and disinfect and freshen your vagina. Bright Blesings sh
All I'm saying is the yogurt works. However, if you've never had an infection, I wonder about your sex life. I mean, Momma always said you get yeast infections from too much humping. I know this is true - I hump, hump, hump - and, well I get infections from time to time. You seem as if you're missing out. The infections are worth the magical tickle from a pickle!
Bio yogurt is good for thrush. You can get wipes for "down there" although I haven't heard too many good things about them. The best thing to do is get it checked out. It's better to be safe than sorry.
I'm not trying to gross anyone out, but ask your doc and you'll find out there is ALWAYS some cheese there. Infections are an overgrowth of yeast. Besides, what would you rather I say? "Too much beef in the meat curtains" Geesh, I'm just trying to make light over something as serious as cheesy tacos. Here's to healthy tacos of HIP-dom!
