hey everyone!
so i have a 21 year old boyfriend & im 19. but it seems like no matter how much i wash my vagina it still seems to smell!! any suggestions?? also my butt seems to smell as well. i know this sounds weird & awkward. im sorry guys haha. & yes i take showers & wash as many times as i can. with a bar of soap (wash it 3 times in the shower) and then sometimes body wash after. thinking maybe it might make it smell better.

They have alot of soaps that adjust this problem also they have feminine wipes to help with this also(.some are higher than others and they even have dollar soap) I hope this helps.

It is not offensive usually to your partner unless the two of you are not a good match chemistry wise. Of the different men I've been around, only once was I with someone whom I did not like his natural musk scent once the pants were off, in fact it made me gag. I should have had a clue because theres a big difference to me in sweat smells too. End of the day, if a guys armpits smell like sweat but it doesnt burn your nose or smell unbearable, that's good. Sweat isnt a pleasant smell but should be something you can tolerate for a small amount of time. His sweat smelled horrid, I couldnt sit next to him at a party without gasping for air.
Guys actually get pretty turned on by a females natural sex smell.
Since you are a bit paranoid about the smell of your vagina, let me caution you to not use douches or sprays that say it makes you clean and fresh. the problem is these things and any soap that may get inside will rinse away the good bacteria inside your vagina that keep the bad ones from over multiplying. Your vagina has its own cleansing fragile ecosytem that doesnt need any interferance or help from you. In fact, too much washing especially if you try to do so inside can be the cause of bacterial infections that you then have to go see a doctor to get treated and vaginosis can smell really off like rotten fish. So if you dont want infections or bad smells, learn to get used to your natural scent dear. And its okay to ask every once in a while if you smell fresh to him. I still do once in a while. It's not often I think I smell something a bit off but I ask and everytime am told I smell good. We are always more critical of ourselves in all ways than anyone else is going to be. I am glad you did ask as this is an important subject. Oh , by the way, there are also glands that can provide a similar odor from the butt. Not always. Some people I never picked up a scent there. And sometimes it smells slightly different but still a good smell, nothing like feces, farts, or something rotten. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
