Why do i smell so bad??

i wash everyday, and i still have odors down there. what could be wrong?
Answer:
Well, it is common for women to have a variety of odors down there, but the most common reasons for "bad smells" are infections. The two most common are yeast and gardnerella (old name for it). Yeast usually smells kind of sweet, though. Gardnerella is an overgrowth of bacteria and gives a "fishy" smell. If you have this, then you need to go to a doctor so they can give you an antibiotic.

You should never douche or use soap (per gynecologists). It makes smells worse and upsets natural balance.

You could also try baths-no soap in water other than what you use to shampoo and wash your body otherwise.

it is a normal thing =when it bothers you too badly you should douche

---

Try summer's eve feminine wash

---

Possibly yeast infection or some other type of infection

---

It is not normal you most likely have an infection, see a doctor.

you may be washing too often...you have a natural protection "down there" and if you wash it too often..you'll remove the layer that gives protection against bacteria.

use a dewsh or how ever u spell it clean more than u usually do!! sorry if didnt help

---

if its a strong fishy smell its probably your body giving you a sign thats somethings not right. you probably have an infection down there. you should go see your doctor and have them solve the problem for you

---

see a doctor you probably have an infection and the douching won't help much sometimes it makes the problem worse as you destroy the natural bacteria that the vagina produce and that makes you more prone to getting infections.

do not douche. u should not have odors. that area will have a smell, but it should not be a bad smell and it should not be strong. it sounds like a yeast or bacterial infection or a combination of both. u need to see a gynocologist. douching can actuallly spread the yeast infection further up inside u and if u don't have a yeast infection it can cause one

That is the wonderful odor..that everyone has. Don't worry hun-I took a shower this morning, and when I got out and fliped my hair upside down, I was like, "what the heck! I just showered! I can't stink down there!"

And so when I put on my jeans, I just sprayed some body spray on there. NOT directly on it. I had pants on.

A good idea is when you are taking the shower, (i know this is gross) just like, make sure water washes through there. To clean it out. I hope you know what I mean. Especilly during PMS, you need to like, ("spread it") to clean it.

It helps I think.
