Foul odour from my private part

Published by

My husband has been complaining that my Vagina is smelling badly. I treated myself for infection and I don’t perceive any odour but my husband is still insisting that I am smelling. He has now started avoiding me. Please help.

Your husband is likely to be correct since it usually takes another person to detect this kind of odour you have described. Apart from infections from germs, some foreign body such as remnants of sanitary pad or Family Planning Device may be the cause of the smell. It will therefore be a good idea for you to see a doctor for a proper vaginal examination and removal of any foreign body in your vagina. In addition to the examination, the doctor will also take a swap of your vagina and send it to the Laboratory for proper examination in order to confirm the actual cause of your infection and the drug to use to cure it.
