Whenever I open my legs, I get a whiff of my vagina. what do I do?

Question

can other people smell it?

Takada · Accepted Answer

Others can probably smell it when you open your legs.
Firstly, get yourself checked, maybe it's an infection.
Secondly, if you haven't showered in more than a day, then it can start to smell. That's normal.
Thirdly, when showering, don't use any soaps or other nonsense down there. It can mess up your pH balance and create infections. Don't use douche bottles either. Just use water.
And finally, after exercising, you will have strong smells down there. That's normal. It goes away once you shower.

Do you shower daily and rinse down there thoroughly with plain water?

If you're skipping showers, that could cause you to have a stronger odor. If you're washing down there with soaps or other products, that could throw off the balance of your vagina and result in odors as well. Otherwise, check with a doctor to make sure everything is in order down there.

If the smell is that strong you might have a bacterial or yeast infection. They are very common. Nothing to worry about but you should see a doctor as it likely won't clear up on its own.

If you're on a heavy period day it's pretty normal for there to be a strong smell.

I very much doubt if anyone else in regular everyday life can smell it. Unless maybe if you have some kind of nasty infection. A healthy vagina has a normal, natural scent that is very erotic for guys. Of course with some kind of infection down there it can have a bad smell.

Talk to your doctor. If you can smell it others can too. Typically a woman with a bad smelling V doesn't smell it themselves and is thus oblivious to it.

Go see your gynecologist.

Nothing at all. To the right guy it will be stunning. So long as it's fresh vagina strong scented ones are amazing. It usually tastes exquisite too. Don't worry iam sure it's perfectly fine.

You need to clean better if it's a horrible smell, but don't douche. If you have been cleaning it thoroughly, see a doctor. People can smell if they're close or it's incredibly strong.

I am assuming that you have proper hygiene so it could be an infection.

itsallover · Answer

It depends. All vaginas have an odour, but if it's offensive then you might want to consult your gynecologist - could be a sign of an infection.

Yes, other people can smell it if they're close. Clean that, PLEASE!

Masturbate more, wash regularly.  Masturbating flushes out the old stuff more regularly than a period.
