Guys I have just been reading about this..amoungst my other problems I have this HORRID smell that I cant even explain. I shower everyday, sometimes twice yet I can be sitting there & will get this woft that is so emmbarressing.. I had never even heard of BV before now & now it all clicks into place !

I douche allot could this be the reason...? for months I have been doing this more as I just got tired of having this smell that is so strong..

But now I know this is a big NO No..

I was too emmbarressed to chat about it to anyone..have also booked myself into GUM clinic to be checked as I thought i had an STD.

does everyone agree that this smell is absolutley hurrendous ???

yes, dear, it's bad, but thank goodness because you wouldn't know you have an infection otherwise. the peroxide thing is good but it's like washing, it doesn't get rid of the source. get you some antibiotics from the doctor.
