I was wondering why some women have a smelly vagina? I douche an bathe everyday. Is this normal
Well, a healthy vagina should smell slightly sweet. Too sweet could be a sign of eating too much sugar or having high blood sugar or a urinary tract infection.

If a woman has a sour smell, it could be the sign of certain STD's or, more likely, an acidic vagina. A person wants to be an alkaline pH. If not, disease is more likely and beneficial bacteria have a hard time thriving. A sour smelling vagina could indicate a lack of enough beneficial bacteria.

If there's a bread-like smell, there's a good indication of a yeast infection.

If there's a foul smell, that's a clear indication of an STD, probably trich. That needs to be treated by a doctor ASAP.

If you have a sour smelling vagina, you want to make sure that your acid/alkaline pH is balanced. You can look up acid/alkaline balanced diets online. You should also consider supplementing yourself with probiotics. Find these at a local health food store. Don't purchase them anywhere else--guaranteed low quality.
