I am a 46 yr. old female and i have noticed that i have recently developed a strong oder. I have never had this before. Is this because I am getting older? I scrub myself in the shower and I still seem to have it no matter what. I just had my pap-smear and it came back normal. I am embarrased by it and I don't feel confident. Is there anything I can do? I was told not to douche by my doctor, but i feel it may be necessary.
