Fishy Friend
Im just wondering, this is a quick question. I slept over my new friends house. Shes extremely pretty, rich, but shes diabetic and she smells like fish. Badly. I know she sprays perfume down there, she's told me. But she cannot find a way to get rid of the smell. What should I tell her as advice?

Well, she could tRy putting baby powdeR in heR panties. AnotheR suggestion: she could use panty lineRs, oR pads, all the time to catch moistuRe and dischaRge. And even if she did THAT, she could still spRinkle baby powder ALONG the panty lineR.. like at the end of both ends, ya know? Also, it's VERY impoRtant to was daily. If she's still having a pRoblem, she could tRy Vagisil's bath wash [ [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) ] and odoR powdeR [ [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) ] Hope this helps!!!

First, advise your friend to stop spraying perfume down there. It messes up the normal balance of things and could be the cause of the 'fish smell'.
Second, get her to go see someone about it. Most infections can be treated simply with a course of antibiotics, and, although it is embarassing, it's better in the long run.

don't spray perfume down there for one (fish smell and perfume don't mix...probably makes it worse). the fish smell is probably because of wetness/moisture. try to keep that area dry and always wash in the shower...
hope i helped.

she might have a yeast infection. tell your parents and then go to the doctors. heres a little information on yeast infections:
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Candida albicans is a widespread organism with worldwide distribution. It is normally found in small amounts in the vagina, the mouth, the digestive tract, and on the skin without causing disease or symptoms (approximately 25% of women without disease symptoms have this organism present).
Symptoms appear when the balance between the normal microorganisms of the vagina is lost, and the Candida albicans population becomes larger in relation to the other microorganism populations.
This happens when the environment (the vagina) has certain favorable conditions that allow growth and nourishment of Candida albicans. An environment that makes it difficult for the other microorganisms to survive may also cause an imbalance and lead to a yeast infection.
Yeast infection may follow a course of antibiotics (particularly tetracycline) that were prescribed for another purpose. The antibiotics change the normal balance between organisms in the vagina by suppressing the growth of protective bacteria that normally have an antifungal effect.
Infection is common among women who use estrogen-containing birth control pills and among women who are pregnant. This is due to the increased level of estrogen in the body. The increased hormone level causes changes in the vaginal environment that make it perfect for fungal growth and nourishment.
Yeast infections may also occur in association with diabetes or problems that affect the immune system (such as AIDS or HIV).

hey if that perfume gets trapped "down there" it could giveher an infection...that might be why she smells. she should try something made for down there, like a wipe of somthing that isnt heavily scented. also, detergents and some expensive soaps can cause it to get worse. <3

if she asks for your advice, tell her to shower everyday and clean really really well. Also that feminine cleaning wash might help. But if it persists, definitly go to a doctor. It could be an infection.

Does she want your advice? you may hurt her feelings if you start giving her advice that she might be kind of senstive about.
I tried looking this up and i couldn't find any thing. have you tried google? try it and see if there is anything she can do.

Ew! L0L! Tell her that she needs to go to the doctor and get it checked out. She is probablly infected in someway so thats the only way that it could be better. She could wear sentned pads and tampons and such. ♥

You should probably tell her to go get it checked out. Sometimes when you have an infection or something is going on wrong, then you get a sorta fishy smell. Or tell her to wash it out with a mild soap and some water, because vaginas have a natural way of cleaning themselves so douching isn't always necissary. Hope I helped.
