Well, in school some people were comenting on my awful smell. I thought it was my dog but then my mom asked me if I have my period. I said yes and asked her how she knew. She said it was because i smell so bad. Now I feel really embarassed. How can I get rid of the awful smell?

Bathe daily and wash down there with soap and water. Also if you use a pad you need to change it often. Same goes for tampons. Also, everytime you use the toilet clean yourself with those moistened tissues (kinda like baby wipes for grownups) It will really help.

Change your pads more often. If you are interested in tampons, they are SO much more sanitary, and you can't notice the smell. they are also a lot more comfortable, but if you are not comfortable using them then just change your pads more often. Also, they have feminine wipes that you can use every time you go to the bathroom. I wouldn't suggest scented pads or tampons, they could cause irritation. Just take good care of yourself, and maybe spray some perfume before you go to school :) Goodluck hun

wow thats harsh but take senced napkins and wipe with those, use the rr more often and change ur pad very often i had that problem a while ago, but my periods are akward so i dont worry about it... but do that and after a pe class or something rinse ur face and use the rr again and wipe wiht the scented cloth oh and u can use the scented pads. i use those, they work wonders.. and belive me everyhting will work out! Bt only use scented if u want theres good adn bads they dont irritate me but they coudl for u.. so its all up to u, but wipe a lot and shower at least 1nce a day..

Forget the pads use tampons. Pads are gross and that is why people are smelling you. With a tampon the blood is collected inside and as long as you change every couple hours it is much cleaner.

Do not use perfumed or scented products, ever.
Do change your pad every few hours, and do wash carefully with plain water.

Use tampons, for one. Bathe/shower often and keep the area clean. They also sell sprays and wipes to keep you feeling fresh down there!

make sure u shower every day, or even twice a day, and consider wearing a tampon...pads are obviously worn outside your body, so they will smell worse...good luck!

Wash your private area several times a day and use doedarant tampons and maxi-pads.
