Good morning, ma'am,
Is this a new occurrence?
Do you have any other symptoms such as unusual discharge, pain or other?
Have you tried anything for this? What soap or cleanser do you use?
What methods or advice has your doctor given you?

Hello,
it's been several months now. My doctor told me to try the Pro Biotic (probaclaque) which I tried but I could not do the 14 days in a row because I had my period. I have no other symptoms and I apply little or no soap. The one you use is called Renpure coconut and vitamin E but I never go deep with the soap. It's really on the surface.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm sorry for the delay I didn't see the notification!
I want to reassure you that a certain odor does not necessarily indicate a problem, especially if you have already seen a doctor about it and a problem has been ruled out.
The smell is analogous to sweating, and can depend on the time of day, diet, daily activities (e.g. sweating), and can even vary through the menstrual cycle.
The first thing to focus on is non-pharmacological measures, if this has not been tried:
Ensure basic hygiene with water. If soap is desired, I suggest a mild, fragrance-free soap, such as the Dove stick, which can be used all over the body, including the outside of the vagina. Vagisil products are best avoided.
I suggest wearing clothing that is loose and breathable, such as cotton clothing and underwear.
You mention presenting this for several months. If there has been a recent change in smell, and/or any other new symptoms, it would be prudent to consult a physician.
I hope this has been helpful, and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

I thank you very much and I don't consider that you answered late, on the contrary I think it was quick. I will follow your recommendations and if there is no improvement I will consult again either on your site or with my doctor.
thank you again and have a nice day
