Hello! It's normal for the vagina to have a certain smell. It is completely natural. What is not is when the white discharge is heavier than usual and smells like fish. This is a symptom of bacterial vaginosis, which is treated with antibiotics. At this point, you should seek medical attention. The discharge you describe could be similar to this. If not, there are some things you can do to help minimize the normal vaginal odor: Clean only the outer part of the vulva (labia majora) with water and a mild odorless soap (e.g., odorless Dove). Do not clean the labia minora and vagina and avoid douching. The vagina is self-cleaning! Avoid all scented products in the vagina (scented sanitary napkins or tampons, scented soap (ex: Vagisil), etc.) Choose cotton underwear Avoid clothing that is too tight In any case, if you find that the smell is stronger and different than usual, make an appointment with your doctor. Have a nice evening! Marie-Laurence Gauthier, pharmacist.
