The smell is on the shower curtain and it gets on my towel and dry towel. I have to wash my towels like 3 times a week.

It is me!!! Not the shower curtains, not the towels.

Sorry for your problem. Body odor is caused by bacteria. Use antibacterial soap and other products. Honestly, if it's very bad, I'd see a doctor - perhaps he could help figure out where this is coming from. Keep everything clean!

The smell on your shower curtain is probably mold. Can you air out your bathroom after every shower...window, fan, leave the door open? Invest in a dehumidifier. There are de-humidifying granules if a "machine" is too expensive....like DampRid(R). Dry your towels after using them somewhere else. Buy more towels and use them once...wash them all on the weekend.
When you say "you have a body odor" do you mean you smell, too, or you're assuming you do because your bathroom does? If you do, too, then consider using the antibacterial soaps....but I really think it's mold.

invest in a new shower curtain, use a fresh towel each time you shower, make sure you are washing your towels in hot water, dry immediately and thoroughly on hot, remove from dryer right away. Take a shower in the morning and evening. Use anti perspirant...not deodorant. If you do all of these things and still have a problem , go see your doctor.

Clean your shower curtain and use a fresh towel every time you shower.

DO NOT SEE A DOCTOR. Prescriptions are killing people and remember, doctors are there to do one thing....maintain your "sickness" or physical malady, not to cure it. To fix your problem: First, make a list of the things you eat weekly, there could be something in your diet that is affecting your body odor. Second, stop using traditional deoderants...they're full of poison and ultimatly wreak havoc on our nervous systems. Health food stores have alternative deoderants. I can get a smell on pretty bad and I do NOT use any deoderant at all....I use baby powder and lotions (body cream) from bath & body works (vanilla to be exact..natural smells work best). Also, just use ivory soap and not some silly perfumed soap...Try the health food store and they WILL help you. Also, acupuncture WILL HELP in this process....a lot of times we don't realize that our inner balance is off because of stress and what not and can create things like bad body odor. lower your stress level, surround yourself with natural products and you can also get certain vitamins and/or minerals from a health food store (not gnc)...just ask the "medicine man/woman" at the store to help and don't be embarrassed. good luck. oh, invest in a air purifier for your bathroom.
