I was told recently my scent is really strong. It really hurt my feelings. What can I do about it. I am a very natural person and I am only looking for natural home options.
Good luck with that!!! Heck, even I use my wife's summers eve feminine wipes down below. Mostly cause I learned from watching 5 gays one girl. One of the queers said "No one likes the taste of 'day old di**."
Thanks to that advice, my wife goes down there alot more.
My advice, USE PRODUCTS. They make the smell and taste a whole lot better.
But is strong a bad thing? Does your smell bother you?
There's bad strong and good strong...i see no problem with good strong.
But yea, see a doc. I had a BAD SMELL and realized (TMI) that I forgot to remove a tampon. For a week. Yep. I will catch your vomit.
How the heck do you forget something like that for a week? Im a guy and I may not understand how everything works down there, but . . . Thats just gross.

Ugh - that had to be awful!
But seriously, this is part of the reason I don't use tampons! My memory is spotty at best, and that is something that I always feared
OP - I agree, there is strong good and strong bad and I would start with a vinegar douche and if it's a foul smelling odor, I would definitely go to the doctors.

I knew someone would post something like this I'm not here to talk about why or how it happened, just that there are MANY reasons why a woman would have a horrible smell.
But I was young and you don't feel them up there.
Yes, it's gross, but you clicked on the topic, which isn't pretty, is it.

It's very possible. I know it sounds like the woman has to be really attention deficit, but I've known smart women who've had that happen. You put it on a low flow day. The tampon goes horizontal or the string wraps around the tampon so there's nothing "obvious" down there. Yeah, it's gross alright when you have to take it out, but stuff happens.

Yea, I can't use them anymore because of my issues.
That being said, OP, I would start out with what YOU think you smell like. Is it yeasty? Like beer or bread? Sour? because there's bad smell and good smell. Good smell doesn't make you cringe at yourself. Does it itch? Ache? So many reasons.
Yeast infection
PID
STDs
Do you wash daily? I don't mean to be insulting but that's something to look at.
There was a time when men wanted their women to refrain from bathing so they could smell them down there

Right?
I don't ask men how they could forget to put on a condom when they catch an STD. Shet happens. LUCKILY I didn't have to go to the doctor. that would have been bad LOL!
I was young and had a life. A single life that was fun! Way more things to think about other than if I took my tampon out. Geebus.
Not to be too unsympathetic but a good shower or bath right before never hurt. I personally like the taste of my wife "natural" (within reason). An hour or two of the natural pheromones will drive me nuts, but after a workout, not so much.
