Answers:
A fishy smell from your vagina is the result of an infection, most often something called bacterial vaginosis!.

It is Not because of poor personal hygiene!. It's an overgrowth of normal bacteria in the vagina!. This is very common in girls and women because of our ph balance being off in a given month or because of antibiotics that cleared out other bacteria!.


The smelling fishy after sex is for some women basicaly because the vagina is naturally acidic and semen is alkaline so sexual intercourse (without a condom) can briefly cause the ph level to change resulting in a fishy smell!. It usually clears up by itself in discharge quickly!.

A woman's natural scent should be sweaty and maybe a little musky but basically not unpleasent!. It can change slightly during your cycle and you may notice it more like when you are changing about a week before your period, but that's it!.And it's probably not that our scent is really stronger but it changed a little and we notise!. For some reason I notise I have a kind of "tortilla" smell then!

a good mature man not boy will love yr smell if he is attracted to you!. Your juices should NOT smell like chemical flowers! We are animals!. Love your body and keep good hygeine!. DON'T douche it bad for your natural ph!. The only time I've douches is to use apple cider vinegar diluted to kill yeast and restore ph!. Don't fall prey to paranoia of some immature guys talking about fishy *******!. The chef said it best!. It can b a tad sweet n a tad sea food ish but it's unique to each woman!.

Many, many, many years ago, people never had daily showers or washes, hygiene was atrocious and therefore the smell was noticable, the same as dead fish! hence the smell 'fishy' !.!.!.can you imagine no hygiene after using a toilet!?
These days there is no excuse for poor hygiene and smelling fishy!.!.!.!.!.no woman does if she attends to her hygiene daily!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm not sure, I've never had any "fishy" smell!.!.!. I mean, everyone sweats, but sweat smells like sweat and it's only bad if you're not showering enough!.!.!. probably some type of infection is there if there's an odor like that, it's not normal!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Two things will make you wet "down there"!.

1) Your genitals keep themselves clean and healthy by sort of "rinsing" themselves with the fluids that they make!.!.!. sometimes there's quite a bit of fluid and it can leak out a *lot*, so wearing panty liners or even light pads can be a good thing to help keep your clothes clean!.

2) When your body is aroused sexually ("turned on" or "horny", even if you're not doing or thinking anything sexual) your genitals will get wetter and slipperier!.!.!. sometimes very, *very* wet!.!.!. so that a penis can slide in there comfortably if you have sex like it's telling you it wants (you don't have to, of course)!.

I'm a cook, so the only things I can really compare the healthy smell of a vagina/vulva to are foods and such!.!.!. and the nearest I can think of is a fairly mild combination of fresh oysters and grated truffles - usually more on the sea-like side, but not "fishy" and certainly not unpleasant!. It often smells a little stronger when you're sexually aroused, but not always!.

If the stuff is clear or slightly milky (might be tinted faintly yellow or brown), slippery to maybe a little sticky, and smells "earthy, animal and a little like the ocean", it's almost certainly healthy and good!. If it smells truly fishy or otherwise bad, it's probably an infection and you should see a doc!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
