*Heather*	Try a douche. Its a feminine cleanser and trust me it will help. You could have some bacteria set up in your vagina that just needs to be washed away. Take a daily shower and use the douche after your period or intercourse or anytime you want to feel cleaner. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

cola_girl	You should go to a gynecologist and get yourself checked. Maybe you contracted an infection or something ( even if you haven't had sex, there are plenty of ways of contracting infections.....like for example if you don't change your tampon often enough) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mandy43110	I could be a number of things: you're cycle is about to arrive, yeast infection, urinary Tract infection. That area is in a very delicate state of balance. Try wearing only cotton undies and eating more fruits and veggies. Eating yogurt (with active Acidophilus cultures) also helps to keep things in balance. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

kiss me ♥	dont listen to the immature people answering they dont understand the female body or their hygeine. Go to your doctor.

Hope this helps. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Angel	perform to yourself a perineal care: by proper cleaning ur private areas alwez which promotes cleanliness. if u ignore that kind of smell and dont take any action, it gives u illness/disease in your private areas like the bacteria is present in thre. so u must take early action toi prevent unnecessary smell. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

peoplearestrange	It could be a bacterial infection. You need to see a doctor, this will not go away on its own. There is not an over the counter medication, like there is for yeast infections. Its something most women go through some time or another. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

~Jules~	How come soo many people anwsered to this question??? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Adam S	probably because you ain't washin it good enough. Don't use deusche, but wash it well and run warm water up it. Air ti out over night and don't wear panties whe you sleep. All privates will smell at one time or another, but if it smells really bad then you might want to go to the doctot! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sassie	You more than likely have an infection you need to go to your doctor so you can get some medication to get rid of it. Or you can douche sometimes that helps but its better to get checked to make sure you don't have an infection before you douche cause it could possibly push the infection farther if you have on. I think you can by Monistat or something like that at a drugstore. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

shayshay	Maybe you got an infection, or soemthing to do with your period...talk to your doc Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

roxiecat4200	Well, that depends, what does it smell like? Are there any other symptoms? How old are you? Have you ever been to the gynocologist? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

yeah!	you could have a yeast infection. That can really make it have a foul odor. Make an appointment with your dr. You may even want to talk to your mother about, I m not sure your age, but you can douche and do other things to get rid of the odor. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tami C	I would say that your vaginal pH balance is off. You should see your family doctor or Gynecologist and have a Pap smear to ensure everything is OK. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

akafireboy	Beacuse it makes it's own moisture and oils etc. You whole body smells (not saying bad, just that it has a scent) you're just used to the scent and don't notice it. As long as your clean and keep good hygene and aren't noticing anything else strange (discharge or anything like that). don't worry about a bit of smell. It's normal. And while having sex may change that smell or make it stronger, it isn't the only thing that makes you scent change. Your body changes throughout life, and your scent will change too. As your doctor what to look for to know when a problem is happening "down there" so that in the future you know what is a concern and what isn't. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

blue_girl	you could still have a bacterial infection or yeast infection, it doesn't take having sex to develop that. You should see your gyno. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

pisceswoman87	Every vagina has a natural smell to it. But, if it's overly strong and fishy smelling, or you have white, clumpy discharge, you might have a yeast infection. Never douche or use feminine deodorant products. They aren't good for you, and can leave you susceptible to infection. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jays_mom	well, make sure you don't use soap or fragrances "down there" it can cause infections. Make sure you wash your privates with water and a cloth only. Don't listen to the men who answered you, they have no idea about the hygiene of a woman Also I would like to add that you should sleep without panties at night, and make sure you wear cotton underwear instead of the other materials so your vagina can breath. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

wish I were	You may have an infection, yes you can get them without being sexually active. Best to get checked out! I had to go to all cotten panties to keep from getting them! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sokokl	This could be an infection but the only way to find out for sure is to have this evaluated by your dr to see what they think could be going on. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
