I have an odor that smells like B.O. I get it pretty often, not all the time. I have gotten it ever since i was 13. It's so embarrassing. I hate to go to the bathroom where i know someone else is going to go in behind me. I don't want them to smell it. I have never heard of a B.O. odor coming from down there before. Have any of you? What is it and what do you do about it? I take a shower everyday and sometimes when i come home that evening I'll smell like it. Sometimes it is very strong and other times it's not. The smell is usually just in my panties. Please help!

Have you asked your doctor about this? Could just be the many changes young women are going through. Could also be some type of infection; yeast? Have you noticed any discharge? My youngest daughter has this problem and it was brought up to her doctor some time ago. Everything seems fine. She does sweat alot (is a larger girl) and I think that may have something to do with it. IDK. Good luck.

They actually have products for females that you can use daily to help with this problem. You can buy them most anywhere. There are several brands and can be powder, spray, wash, or wipes. You should try these!
Hope that helps

These products simply "mask" or overpower the odor, possibly making the problem worse (due to the chemicals/perfumes). Best to check with the doctor as normal odors of the female genitalia should be musky and/or sweet and not offensive.
