Yes, it does if were talking about the vagina area. When aroused by my husband after him "going down" on me. I love the way I taste and smell. And for all those women that don't well, maybe you just smell funky and should clean your "engine" out as one guy put it. I smell like Victoria Secret Strawberries and Champange.

It is possible to suffer from a yeast infection without exhibiting all of the symptoms of a yeast infection. Typically a woman will notice a thick discharge, will suffer from itching and irritation, and may experience pain or buring while urinating or having sex. Sometimes the discharge is whitish in color, sometimes it may be more yellow. Sometimes the discharge is odorless, sometimes it may have a yeasty smell to it. Sometimes there may not be any noticeable discharge. Symptoms and the severity of the symptoms can vary among women and how soon the woman seeks to have it diagnosed and treated.\n\nIt is always important to visit your doctor or gynecologist if you suspect you may have a yeast infection, because these symptoms can be easily confused with other conditions that have similar symptoms. Different vaginal infections like a yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis and trichominasis can all have similar symptoms, but they are all treated in different ways because they are caused by different organisms.\n\nLike others have said, I am going to advise you to visit a doctor. Don't try to self-treat yourself because you may be trying to treat a vaginal infection that won't respond to the treatments you are trying to use if you're just going by your symptoms. Your doctor will need to do a pelvic exam and take a culture-swab to determine the cause of your infection, so that you can receive the proper treatment.\n\nDon't listen to people on here. Though they are trying to help, they can't correctly diagnose you just by your symptoms. So visit your doctor, or if that's a problem, try locating a low-cost women's health clinic in your area until you can get things smoothed out. Best of luck to you!

I probably shouldn't being answering this question but I will because you don't know.\nOk Young lady, The answer to your question is (NO).\nGirls can have a slight discharge of fluids, Moisture.But it should only be very light Any discharge that has a Color or Strong odor should be looked at by a Doctor. For young women it is important to notice anything out of normial (as you have done) Don't ignore it.It is probably just a minor Yeast infection ( nothing serious (yet) But if you are having sexual relations (sex) then you may have been given a Sexually transmitted diesease by your partner. DON"T IGNORE THIS GO TO A DOCTOR OR CLINIC AND HAVE IT LOOKED AT>AND DON"T HAVE SEX IN THE MEAN TIME. If you don't have it checked and wait it could get much worse.making you very sick. Infections of any kind so near your reproductive organs could make you loose the abilit to have children..

Any foul smelling type of discharge indicates some kind of infection going on.  You don't describe it, so I can't give you any suggestions as to what it might be.\nIf you are a female and you are referring to a vaginal odor, then please see a doctor to get tested.  I would not recommend douching as this can not only alter the balance of the body, but can make you even more suseptable to infection.

Could just be vaginal discharge (whitish and watery), could be urine, could be sweat. Look at and smell the fluid. If you are unsure, ask your family doctor to help you identify the problem. Good luck!

It depends upon the level of sweat and how much discharge you release at a given time.  During your period, the odor is stronger but can normally not be smelled by others.  Not all of them smell bad.

Depends on the nature of the discharge, meaning if it caused by a bacteria than you will be given an anti-bacterial.  If caused by a yeast then you will be given an anti-fungal. Also some women just produce excessive "moisture" and it is natural for their body.

Every woman has a distinct smell "down there", especially at certain times of the month.  Since you are entering your more fertile years, it may be a sign that you are ovulating.  As for the smell, I've found that washing yourself with a wet wipe in the bathroom a few times a day can help.  If the discharge becomes really thick or you have any pain see your doctor immediately.  I assume since you said you've seen your doctor lately you discussed this with him/her.  If not, please do, they will have more reassuring advice than anyone on here.

It's part of the normal vaginal discharge and a way for the body to clean itself out beyond the normal period.  You should be okay if it's odorless.  It's when it smells like cottage cheese that you've got a problem.

Hi ... well I wont say a thing for the fact that you are looking so closely .. thats your own business, but if you suspect possible cheating .. I cant tell yo many people do the underwear sniff test ... as bad as that sounds.\n\nWomens Vaginas discharge during the day .. I know its not pretty .. some days its not much some days it more.. also is a hormonal thing .. and if your in the process of ovultaing ... a 2 - 3 day period the consitency is different .. sometimes clear, sometimes yellowish ..\nIt could be from a yeast infection .. also .. \nwho knows...\nI believe in honesty .. I would ask ...\nIt would be hard to tell if it was from sex .. as sweat always seems to have that distinct sex smell anyway ..\n\nUnless you suspect funky business I would say its quite normal and most women find it embarssing and hide it from the partners ... but in ur case ur doing the laundry \nhope that helps...

It feels like an intense itching, burning sensation, in your vagina and the surrounding area. This itching is not always present, but can get really bad. looks like clumpy nasty white stuff. most medical descriptions compare the discharge to cheese, but it can range from thick and not clumpy to faintly yellow to thin and clear. \nIt usually smells like bread or beer. in fact, it smells pretty much exactly like yeast, although the yeast used in brewing and baking is an entirely different species (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). \nYou should not miss your period with this,\ntry this website for more info\nhttp://www.msu.edu/user/eisthen/yeast/symptom.html\n\n\n its very annoying, wearing cotton underwear and not using bubble bath and alot of stuff down there can help. You can get over the counter stuff to use at night or in the day, drink cranberry juice. If after using the over the counter stuff it doesn't go or comes back then you may need to go to the doctor for some stronger meds.\nit is very common in women, it can happen to any one of us unfortunately, (like we don't have enough on our plates to deal with).xx

A white vaginal discharge is very common and while it may be the result of some local pathological condition, often no cause is found. Such a discharge is non irritating, non odorous and without any blood. It may be due to cervical erosion, cervical polypi, mild endocervical infections, cervical laceration or a very low grade vaginal infection.

Most (95%+) vaginal odor is caused by an infection called "gardnerella" which causes bacterial vaginosis. While this infection can be passed between partners, it is not a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is one of the chief causes of vaginal odor. This odor may become more pronounced after having sex and is fishy in nature. This is the most common type of vaginal odor. \n\n\nVisit your Obstetrician/gynecologist

I wouldn't be too worried about the smell. Vaginal discharge often has an off smell. I would only be worried if the smell is overpowering and/or looks discoloured. A lot of times the smell will accompany other things if there's something wrong like symptoms of an infection, but if it's always been like that and nothing else is wrong i wouldn't be worried. It's not really a place that smells flowery to begin with right?\nAs for the panty liners, i'm not exactly sure how bad it is for you to be wearing them everyday to be honest . I don't think the panty liners actually make much of the smell go away, you'll be getting rid of some of the discharge and therefore it feels cleaner, but my guess is you've just become accustomed to wearing them for so long that you've conditioned yourself to believe that it's minimizing the smell. Try doing it like quitting smoking, just wear them every other day and see how you feel and if there's a difference.\n\nP.S - To moforailer, I feel sorry for you, it's too bad you have that much time in your pathetic life to go on yahoo and write answers that make you look like a 2yr old.

Discharge is there to clean the vagina. \nIt is completely normal every woman will experience discharge in some way or another. \nDischarge will start a few years before a girl starts her period.\nIt will change with her cycle it becomes milky and more fluid like when she is ovulating and more sticky other times.\nDischarge should not have a very strong smell or greenish colour, this would indicate an infection.
