Why does my genital area smell?

Yesterday I noticed that my genital area smelled, quite badly too. I’m 16 and have never had sexual intercourse and I can’t think of why my genital are producing such an odour. Does anyone know why this could be happening and how to fix it?

Answer #1

well its very common…I would recomend that you just wash down there. If that dosen’t work then visit a doctor.

hope I helped

Thanks

Answer #2

I don’t know why, probably hormones. But to help it from not smelling, when you wash down there, only use water. Trust me, it works. I used to use soap and then I heard about the water thing and it helps it not to smell. Hope this helped!

Answer #3

to fix it, you may have heard of femine wash? its about 2$ A bottle and it works if you follow the directions, it helped me get rid of odors for me as well .

Answer #4

It could be a yeast infection which is common also if washing with feminine was or water doesn’t work try a product for yeast. It can be bought at a local drug store.

Answer #5

It’s probably what you call bacterial vaginosis. It is where the natural ph balance in your vagina is disturbed.

This usually happens for various reasons, often being too clean or douching is the main cause because that disturbs the natural balance down there.

So, I suggest that you do not over clean, rather get some soap specifically made for that area and clean with that

if you smoke it could also be causing it.

I suggest that if it doesn’t go away to see your doctor, it’s a pretty common thing and they can prescribe a cream for you to apply.

Answer #6

It would be good if you stated what gender you was instead of us having to ask but I guess your a male as your profile states, generally you should wash daily but if you masturbate and get rid of the semen, often theres still semen on the penis head that isnt noticeable and will create an unplesant smell after a while therefore you should wash daily, this is most likely in a males concern of the type
