Whats wrong with me down there.....
Hey
So in 2009 there were several instances(no more than 3 or 4) where Id have this strong odor down there. Last sunday it happened again and now, a week later its still the same. Well i have sex a lot, safe to say everyday if not every other. (yes with the same person lol) What could this be? I was never really concerned before because I just accepted the fact that its probably just something it does every now and then. The odor never lasts more than 2 weeks or anything so i dont know exactly what it could be. If anyone knows what it could be please let me know.

You don't specify what the odor is like. Is it foul? Rotton? Sweet-smelling? Is there any discharge with it? I ask because I had a problem like this many years ago. I had a horrible smell, it smelled almost rotten, and I would also have a cloudy discharge that would come and go. I was worried until I realized that I only experienced it when I was in very stressful situations. It was my body reacting to the stress, and at that time I was really going through some tough things. It passed once the pressure eased up. If you're having a stressful time in your life it might be related to that. If you have a discharge that is milky, or changes colors, you need to see a doctor. It couldn't hurt to see a doctor anyway, just to be safe. Most likely its no big deal, but better safe than sorry, right?

There's no simple solution to this. Unless someone on this site has a PHD, then advice coming from anyone could possibly be errelavent.
However, in any instance where you're having an odor down there, you should have it looked at. Do not be nervous about this, as it could be something as simple as a bacterial, or yeast infection, or a urinary tract infection(UNI)-- something that all women (sexually active or not) go through.. but also, could mean you might have a sexually transmitted disease (not to scare you).
I advise that you do make an appointment with either your gyno, or a normal doctor could be of help, too. Do this quickly, and I say this only because if it is UTI.. it can spread to your kidneys, and cause a whole lot of problems.
Make sure that when you do go, you know vital information to share with your physician, such as if it smells when you pee..after sex.. before your period, what your diet is like..even if you are allergic to laundry detergent.
Good luck.
