localgirl Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Ok. So if this makes anyone uncomfortable I'm sorry stop reading. Latetly I have noticed that my " smell" has changed. I don't know why either. Is it weird that I noticed? What could have possibly made my smell change? I wash daily and keep myself clean. Anyone have ideas as to why?

lady00 Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 It's not weird that you noticed. You know your body best, so it's not surprising you'd notice a change like that. Could be a lot of things from what you've been eating lately to your exercise habits (if you're sweating more, it changes your "smell") to an infection of some kind. You might want to see a doctor so you can 1) rule out infection and 2) figure out what other things could cause the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itsok Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Agree with lady. When's the last time you went for a physical? I would probably schedule one in if you can, or just go to your doctor, explain what's up and let him rule out you have (or are not getting) an infection.

lunatic Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I agree with the other posters when they said get checked out by your doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigsaw Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Has anything in your diet drastically changed? That can effect your smell. I agree with all here that you should visit a doctor if you're concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayKay Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Go to your doctor to rule out any infections first of all. Your vagina has a balance of yeast and bacterias, or "flora". This balance can be disrupted by illness, birth control, sexual fluids, diet, certain soaps (using antibacterial soaps especially), and any number of other things which can lead to various infections (yeast, bacterial vaginosis). It could also be an STI. However, we cannot tell you over the internet! First step is to rule anything out that can be harmful (untreated these things can lead to infertility, scarring, kidney infections(bad!)/bladder infections as bacteria travels, and so forth. Hopefully it is nothing major and it can just be the result of your diet and so forth, but just rule the bad things out first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarnelianButterfly Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 If your currently taking any new medications those change your odor, too. Some antibiotics can make you smell kinda funky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coollady1957 Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 I agree that it could be any number of things that could change the odor. Could be a change in your diet, or as some one said, some medications can cause it as well. Also hormonal changes might possibly be a cause. IF its becoming a concern to you definitely see your doctor to rule out infections of any kind. Best to be sure and on the safe side. Odds are its something easily correctable.
