I have alleregies and sinus problems.My nose isn't the best at smelling.If a smell isn't loud then I prolly can't smell it.With that being said I started a new job on tues but I ended up quiting(thursday)this morning becuz at work on tues some one was sayin that something was smellin in my area and it made me nervous.I wont say that I did smell but anything is possible.That night I washed all my clothes and took a long shower,still on wed someone said my area was smellin(I was workin in a warehouse).I checked my self when I got home and didn't feel that it was me but was to nervous to settle my mind.At the least I spend a half hour in the shower.Body washes give me yest infects and the last time I used a feminine wash it didn't seem to as well as at first.I don't know any other females who have to go thru all this.I went to one doc but he was a perv and his nurses made me uncomfortable.I'm not in the public alot,I've tried talkin to some fam on the low with no help.

Try going to Planned Parenthood. They are there to help you and they are understanding. Womens issues are all they deal with there. You should definitely go in though, because you could have something wrong with you. Don't be embarrassed, they've seen it ALL.

Try using a mild soap like Ivory, dove,jergens etc. Make sure you was every little crack and crevice. But don't over do it-be gentle. Over washing can cause an even worse odor. Which means that you've stripped your flora (good bacteria). Always wipe from front to back and keep it dry. You might want to try sprinkling some cornstarch baby powder in your panties after your morning shower. Will keep you fresh all day long. As far as the "normal" smell goes... Every woman's different. It all depends on your system, diet etc. But I I've found that a kind've sweet, or sour, even metallic odor is pretty normal to have down there. Not a loud smell at all. But fishy, garbage-like smell, must, or stale Cheetos, are not a good smell to have down there.

Go to a female doctor. They can do a culture and tell you if you have a bacterial infection which is what would be causing an odor if there is any. If you do have a bacterial infection, they'll give you antibiotics. Yeast infections smell like vinegar, so it isn't that.
From what you've said though, I really doubt that you could have that bad of a nose that you couldn't smell yourself. I think you might be overreacting (I hate that word, but I couldn't think of another one, sorry!).
I agree with the other person, you co-workers sound like a**holes.

The problem wasn't with the odor of your pelvic area, it was with your a**hole coworkers!!
First of all, you cannot smell a woman's pelvic area unless your face is between her legs - and unless you were working at a really perverted warehouse, I doubt anybody had their nose to your crotch!!!
Second, people in warehouses are doing a physical job, and healthy people sweat when they're working - yes, sweat has an odor, but it's a WAREHOUSE and EVERYBODY smells like sweat (except for the bosses and others who don't do any work!!!) If you don't sweat, you will DIE, so sweating is a healty thing to do!!
It sounds like you were working with a bunch of jerks - either they were men who didn't want a woman on the job, or they were women who were jealous about you for some reason.
In any case, the problem was with THEM not YOU!!!
I'm sure you smell just fine - your former coworkers are the ones that stink!!!

Sounds like what I go through from time to time. Mine is both physical and psychological. Ask someone you trust if you smell. It will take the paranoia away. I wish they had invented an odor detector.

it sounds like you are probably not the cause of the odor,
however it does sound like you may have some anxiety issues, it might be worth it to talk to your doctor or psychiatrist and think about getting on an anti-anxiety medication, or get some sort of treatment for anxiety. its very hard to life with anxiety, and treatment would help your quality of life quite a bit.
