What Causes Intense Body Odor?

Apparently I have intense body odor (entire classrooms notice, people ten/fifteen feet away, etc). I hear these complaints after showering just five minutes before, washing everywhere, wearing clean clothes, deodorant, etc. I was so paranoid about it at one point I was showering five times a day with no positive effects or improvements. I was diagnosed with a vaginal infection last year which was treated with antibiotics. Even after treatment I still heard odor complaints and due to lack of insurance the people at the reduced clinic seemed less than supportive about repeat tests, alternative causes for the odor, etc. Could an infection cause such intense odor? This has been going on for at least 3 1/2 years.
