    Default I Stink!

    Many times I will take a whiff down there and it smells horrible. I've asked my doctor and she says its normal. She told me to never used deodorant sprays, feminine washes, etc (due irritation). But how can I not use these. This really sucks because I do nude dancing and I'm pretty sure customers, etc can get a whiff of this horrid smell. I usually swipe with a scented baby wipe after i use the bathroom, or on stage, or giving dances then I spray a little FDS on myself. But the smell is still there. Does anyone else have this problem? If so, what else can be done?

    one simple cure if your willing to go a little drastic is if your not already shaved, shave it all off, it will reduce any musky odors due to sweating, also a few companys put out fem wipes which work well and fem washes only cause irritation in people with extremely sensative skin. I have sensative skin and i've never had any problems with any fem products

    I totally agree..SHAVE IT..Hair is just a breeding ground for bacteria that causes the odor. Take a whiff of a guys underarms..whoa! Even if your clean..I guess the bacteria is just grows faster than one can get rid of. If you are already shaved i'm not sure what else you can do. I've been shaved bald for like 9 years now you will get used to it..I couldn't imagine having hair down there ever again.

    Yeah I've been bald for years too, can't imagine having hair down there anymore.

    Are you sure the smell is that bad or are you being paranoid? What is the smell like? Fishy? Musky? Other?

    I've been super-aware of my odor since I started dancing nude recently after 12 years of topless. I do the same things you're doing with the baby wipes and a quick spray of FDS periodically and it seems to be working. The more I think about it, I don't think the aroma is any different than it ever has been, I'm just more aware of it now.

    If your doc says you're OK, then I wouldn't worry about it too much. Besides, it has been my experience that guys like that odor. I would prefer to be completely fragrance-free, but hubby likes the natural scent!

    maybe u r allergic 2 the fragrances that r used in baby wipes... Playtex has wipes that r made 2 be wiped down below..i use playtex. r u irritated from using the baby wipes? dancers at my club said that they dont use baby wipes cause baby wipes can cause yeast infections. also change soaps, change ur washing powder and detergent. the smell might be a infection or it might be ur natural smell. i would try changing body wash soap and the detergents.

    I agree with the shaving it idea. Also, that FDS spray is bad for your vagina, and will probably make it stink more in the long run...maybe just try a vinegar, water and boric acid douche once every 2 weeks or so, take acidophilus so that you don't get yeasty, and switch to cotton panties when you're not working.

    I gave up on baby wipes myself. I have been using the Cottonelle flushable wipes and they are great! They have no perfumes and "get the job done." It has been so long since I bought baby wipes, I do not remember what the price differnece is, but they are worth every penny I pay. I will even use them now and then at the end of the night to wipe my face with out fear of harming my skin.

    And with FDS, I used it WAY back when I first starting dancing, so I cannot remember for sure, but since it leaves a powdery residue, doesn't it glow under black light, like some deoderants?

    Gads, it seems I cannot remember much of anything these days? Is that bad?

    It's a mouse thing. You wouldn't understand.

    I think you might just be paranoid. guys really do love the smell of a female. I enjoy my smell though. I just try to keep it clean in general, I wash with just plain water (I also use my exfolioating gloves on my labia and shave fairly often but not every day). and when i am really wet I will wipe with toilet paper so I dont get it all over everything. my husband loves how I taste and sometimes I cant keep him away. he would prolly be pissed if I used a FDS because it would taste funny, like when I kiss his neck after he puts on colougne (YUCK!).......

    If your doctor is saying that everything is FINE then it obviously means you dont have an infection.
    Soooo, maybe the problem is the WAY you are cleaning yourself. When you shower, make sure you clean everywhere (Obviously not the vaginal hole) lol That would burn like a bitch.
    Just clean "in between" everything else. Make sure that after you shower, you dry it. (light on the blow dryer... or just make sure its not soaked when you put your undies on)

    I know this because I take really good care of my goods. lol I have luckily never had an infection down there (knock on wood) BUT, I am very clean about it. Make sure you do that, because the smell may be from improper care. (Like not cleaning in between and such)
    Good luck

    Hey Sweetie.,

    I had something of that same problem however I didn't really have a funky smell..

    This is what worked for ME so you can take it and try it but this worked for me best...

    Iwent out and got a FDS spray nothing prefume like just one that said fresh, and clean smell. Then I took a shower and I would spray that on when I was all dryed down there cause i wouldn't really take care of my body until I NOW since I am preparing for July to dance so I came on here and realize what I have been missing!

    So anyways then I shaved with a Aloe Mostiure Shaving Cream and got this Intution Shaver cause on here I heard it was the bomb and it is let me tellyou i didn't need the shaving cream cause the shaver it comes out so i just used it on my legs etc. Then I put that spray on my smell is gone!

    I also got a good tip on here also I started to rub lotion on my inner thighs in the morning so it will smell good also. This works wonders my boyfriend noticed this weekend and couldn't take his mouth away from it LOL he said wow what did you do different!

    So go with that if you want but that is working for me. Again you will find great useful info here the women are AWESOME!!!

    GOOD LUCK SWEETS

    Also you might want to check your diet. Drink tons of water and try to eat clean that can affect the way you smell down there also so take a look at your diet too okay sweetie!

    From what I've seen/heard guys seem to love that smell....

    But I'd agree...SHAVE IT! You'll notice after shaving that it won't be as 'strong'.

    I disagree.
    Your doctor may not be telling you everything.
    I think you should request that your doctor test you for bacterial vaginosis if you don't already know for sure this was done. This is not usually a routine exam, but it's still important.
    and um,
    I don't mean to be crass but you have to clean your vag out. That means stick a finger in there and get all the "goop" out. This may seem gross... but how gross is it to leave it in there? Think about it, you blow your nose, clean the wax out of your ears, your eyes water...don't forget vaggie!

    I had just a passing thought on this while catching up on the boards...

    Could it possibly smell from sweating? I am not a slow dancer and get on stage quite a bit during the night, so I sweat a ton. I notice that if I do not use a wipe to clean up often, I start to smell like I would if I were not wearing deoderant.

    Ice Queen, you are right. I was referring to the fact that if her doctor said she was OK (thinking that as a doctor, she would have done tests on her) that she is fine.

    BUT if her doctor hasnt tested her, then she might have BV.

    I just had to clear that up, cause I assumed she had done the tests.

    I'm also wondering if you,ve gone through any hormonal changes recently. After i had my daughter i noticed that my scent had changed from not much of anything to somthing i noticed. It still hasn't returned to what it was originally, now things go according to my cycle. I also had a very similar prob when i had the depo shot 8 years ago that lasted for about a year. good luck, and try to increase your water consumption.

    after my husband came back (I hadnt seen him in about 18 months right before we got married) he changed my cycle and my scent.... he caused my period to come a week sooner then it was suppost to, and it smelled difrent, the blood did, like blood mixed with strawberries, thats the best way to describe it... it was weird.... the rest of the month my scent is still similar to what it has always been, except right after sex, actually for some time after sex, a few hours to maybe a day... even with showering and everything.... so I will agree that hormones and other things can have an affect.....

    The vagina (and penis!) have self-cleaning mechanisms. This is why your panties sometimes get "wet". you need to clean the vulva well, but cramming a bunch of soap deep in there are not going to make any difference, and can cause the same problems as douching. If you must get all up in into the goop, I suggest spraying water from a detachable shower head nozzle. Hell, it might have other, errr, beneficial side effects....

    This is going to sound really disgusting...but is there any chance you left a tampon in? I learned this lesson the hard way on my senior trip in high school. Was on the beautiful beach, lookin hot in a bikini, and the odor was HORRIBLE! When I got back and saw the doc, they found a tampon that had gotten crammed so deep I couldn't feel it. It was rotten. (EWWW!) I was on the last day of my period the first day there, got a little drunk and "frisky" and it was jammed. Get it checked! Also, BV could very well be the cause as well. Have had that, too, and it does smell funny.

    Just summing up & adding some things:

    1. Drink lots of water - zilch the coffee & alcohol

    2. Have your doc give you the proper tests you need (they don't always do that, especially at routine check-ups)

    3. "Scoop-the-goop" but dont use fem products or soap (bad idea), using your finger in the shower with water should work just as well

    4. Check your diet! Your diet has a huge effect on your body AND your "secretions"

    5. It may just be your hormones or a certain time in the month... I notice my "cough:vaggie:cough" tends to smell a little fishy for a few days a week before my period.

    6. Make that you have no STDs or infections

    Hope this has helped!

    PS - One thing I do when its startin to smell like "chicken of the sea" down there... I wear a tampon that it intended for a very light period. If the tampon is "absorbing" the goop... the smell is not going to be able to seep its way out.
    You think you know... but you have no idea!
