What Causes Fishy Vaginal Odour In Woman?
Hi, I m a 21 year old woman, and for a few years now I ve been noticing I have a very strong odor that I believe is coming from my vaginal area. The smell isn t fishy, but more of an onion like smell. Some days the smell is as strong as a man s armpit. Any ways to lessen the smell? I m not sexually active, so I ve already ruled out STDs. I also have some anexity, which makes me sweat and seems to make the smell worsen. Thank you

Hi,
From history it seems that due to more perspiration and less airy part might have produced bad vaginal odor.
Having poor local personal hygiene does precipitate this problem.
Go for,
Wear cotton inner wears,
Keep local part dry and clean,
Use some antiperspirant duo spray,
Clean local parts with plane water particularly after urination or bowel movement.
Avoid more spicy,onion, junk food.
Take plenty of water.
Ok and take care.
