sounds like you have a bacterial infection. it dont mean your dirty i got a bacterial infection once and my dr said it was from douching it washes away good bacteria that helps fight bad bacteria. and douching pushes bad bacteria up in to your cervix. and the only way to get rid of it is with an antibiotic. if you are experiancing alot of discharge more than normal thats your bodys way of trying to get rid of bad bacteria. so you will need to see a doctor to get rid of it

A healthy vagina and vulva do not smell bad unless you have a problem, usually an infection. Powders and perfumes may cover up an odor, but you wouldn't spray perfume on an infected cut, would you?
There are some other causes for bodily odors, but they would not be limited to just your genital area. Seriously, you need to be examined by a doctor.

You should try wearing cotton underwear, and clothes that breathe more often. Silky underwear and tight clothes have a tendency to help the production of yeast and other germs that can have and cause a pungent odor. It is nothing to be ashamed of, it happens to all of us. Another thing to try is sleep with no underwear on underneath your pajamas. Letting it breathe can help wonders! Hope this helps your problem! Just whatever you do, don't spray perfume or try and use scented body wash or lotion in that area, they can make it worse.

Go have a gynecological check up. The smell could be due to a yeast infection or another form of infection (doesn't have to be an STD).

You need to go see your doctor. Usually, its a sign of an infection or, you could have a yeast infection. No matter what the cause, cant diagnose it over the Internet so, go get the exam and some medication and all will be well again.

Don't use powders, that's probably a big part of the problem. Perfumy or powdery things in that area can cause allergic reactions. Including scented or printed toilet paper. Stick to undergarments with white cotton gussets. Food allergies can also cause smells there believe it or not!!

Pubic hair will itch like loopy while transforming into back in. there's a submit shave gel by using bikini zone that could help relieve that. And the release could properly be led to by using an infection. (possibly from utilising shaving cream/gel)

Matbe it's your underwear?! Thongs are on of the worst inventions ever for women!! They cause yeast infections, and it is possible to have one without all the itching you generally here associated with them. Make sure you are wearing underwear with a cotton crotch so your girlfriend can breathe!!

You have a yeast infection or trichomosis.
