one, sorry i've been asking so many questions!
two, i change my underwear everyday, but everytime i open my legs, whether im squatting down to pick something up. moving my legs apart on the couch or just re-position myself. a nasty stenchy smell comes from my vagina area. i have discharge practically all the time, but im always changing my underwear so it doesnt build up. ive just noticed it more the past couple of months because after my period i coudl always smell something when i got in and out of my car. my mom even noticed it once! its embarassing, but i dont know if its a 'thing' that happens after my period. or if its discharge. can anyone help?

Stenchy & smelly

If it's strong enough that other people notice, it may indicate a yeast infection. You can get stuff from a pharmacy for yeast infections - worth trying to see if it helps. A yeast infection may be the reason for the heavy discharge, too.

Some girls' smell is more stronger than others.But if it is bad enough that you need to change your panties, then maybe you need to go to the doctor and just get checked out and talk to them about it.Your discharge, is it have color to it? If so, that is a problem that needs looking into. It is normal to have a discharge most of the time, as long as it is clear.

Is it your vulva, or the space between your vulva and your leg?

Its normal color, clear. But I think its coming from my vulva. Im not itchy and it doesnt hurt, so I didnt think it would be a yeast infection, but now I have no idea what it is.

Next time you get out of the shower, when you're drying yourself take a paper towel or washcloth, and gently wipe in the space between your leg. Often times thats where an odor is coming from, and people automatically assume it's coming from your vulva :wink:
