Sometimes I get a funny smell that I just can't understand. My friend says her p****y always stinks but mine just smells like nothing after a shower and then later in the day, I get a urine smell. That's it. But now, my smell has changed to a faint sweet and yet sour like smell. This smell goes away for a week then comes back for a day or two. This only happens periodically but I was wondering if it normal. Maybe it is something I have eaten, but what? Any thoughts?

Sounds like a yeast infection. Get to a Dr.

Vaginas have many glands and secrete different types of bacteria naturally. these bacteria are very acidic and protect the vagina from infections, and kill sperm. The secretions do have an odor, however it is not necessarily a foul smell, it's just a small odor. However, if you haven't showered in a long time, or have had sex, the vagina secreted a different smell. I know after sex the smell gets worse. It's all normal, unless you have other symtoms, or the smell is fishy. If it smell fishy than you could have a vaginal infection, and should go to the doctor.

cleanliness is key here woman have an oven baking between our legs and if not properly cleaned can lead to yeast infections and worse. Always clean area from front to back so that you dont wipe germs towards but away from area and tight clothing may cause odors wear loose clothing and undies with a cotton lining and wash area thouroughly you may also want to use a femine cleansing wipe or deodorant to help with this problem,most importantly see your doctor if problems persist you may have a serious problem that only a physician can treat for you

women should not have a smell, this usually means you have some sort of infection, go to the Dr. to make sure everything is ok and they will either give you med. to get rid of the infection or they can tell you what to get to keep you smelling clean and fresh, good luck girl!

does it itch or burn? if so it could be yeast infection. (try adding peroxide with water and splashing it down there several times a day, its natural and dosent hurt) If not it is probably just a secreation from your glands. Maybe you have a though and get turned on. When ever you notice it, be aware of whats going on. It could be yourself getting turned on and a lubrication is being produced

If it is not medical....Try feminine cleansing wash. It is sold near the tampons. Use it everyday externally daily and you will not have to worry about the smell.
