For as long as I could remember, my vaginal discharge always smells funny. I'm not sure if it is smelly but it doesn't smell that bad to me. It's an unusual prickly smell though. I don't know if anybody besides me smell it, but I was always so worried that somebody will realise that I reek of my vaginal discharge! So for the past year or so I have been wearing panty liners EVERYDAY! And even now, I take care to change it often because the discharge has a really strong smell and I am worried
Is this abnormal ? (to wear them everyday AND\OR vaginal poo that smells funny) I heard it makes your vaginal unhealthy if you wear them everyday because it keeps the moisture from evaporating but I can't stop

I wouldn't be too worried about the smell. Vaginal discharge often has an off smell. I would only be worried if the smell is overpowering and/or looks discoloured. A lot of times the smell will accompany other things if there's something wrong like symptoms of an infection, but if it's always been like that and nothing else is wrong i wouldn't be worried. It's not really a place that smells flowery to begin with right?
As for the panty liners, i'm not exactly sure how bad it is for you to be wearing them everyday to be honest . I don't think the panty liners actually make much of the smell go away, you'll be getting rid of some of the discharge and therefore it feels cleaner, but my guess is you've just become accustomed to wearing them for so long that you've conditioned yourself to believe that it's minimizing the smell. Try doing it like quitting smoking, just wear them every other day and see how you feel and if there's a difference.
P.S - To moforailer, I feel sorry for you, it's too bad you have that much time in your pathetic life to go on yahoo and write answers that make you look like a 2yr old.

It's not normal. Vaginal discharge should be clear and be odorless (or at least not smell BAD).
You could have a yeast infection, or an STD.
Go to your doctor ASAP, who can help you get rid of the problem. And yes, pantyliners are not healthy. You're right-- they don't let your skin breathe, and make the problem worse.

The main problem is that your cat is overweight. The reasons most cats don't have this problem is because they clean down there with their tongues after pinching a loaf in the litter box. However, overweight cats tummies tend to bulge and their back stiffens only enough that it makes cleaning down there extremely difficult if not inconceivable for the cat. Cats are smart enough to learn that once they can't clean down their anymore they stop trying. The only way to stop this is to put your cat on a diet to have it lose weight. Soon enough it will begin cleaning down there again. As your vet what a good food is to put it on. Best of luck.

Firstly have bath at least twice a day with warm water and make sure to clean the area well with good soap and towel dry it well. Continue and if this doesn't work then only consult a Gyne. All the best!

YOU MAY HAVE A CONSTANT INFECTION IN YOUR BODY. GO TO YOUR DOCTOR/GYNO AND GET THEM TO CHECK YOUR PH LEVELS AS WELL AS THIS MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SMELL.
