How can I smell better down there?

 
 

Check these out, too...

  • I'm only 13--why did my breasts stop growing?
  • Does it hurt when you first get your period?
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • I need longer pads! How do I tell Mom?
  • What stinks down south?
Last October I got my first period and I’ve heard of feminine odor, but recently I've had a really strong smell from “down there.” It rubs on my underwear and I can smell it all day long. Do you have any advice on how to get rid of it?
 

Welcome to womanhood. Discharge is sometimes just part of the game when you start going through puberty. But, luckily, there are some ways to deal. You can try getting some scented pantyliners, which will both help get the underwear sitch under control, and add a friendly scent.

 
While it’s not good to wash down there with soap in the shower, there are some soap-free cleansers that are safe to use. Check your local CVS. And while you’re there, you can also grab some cleansing wipes. Not the kind for cleaning household surfaces, but feminine wipes for this specific purpose.
 

Good luck, girl!

when i am on my period i don't get to bad of cramps but i get very sore upper legs and hipflexors like i just ran 10 miles it this normal? and if so what can i do for it? its not really a place i can put a heating pad.




Every girl experiences different things when she gets her period whether its cramps or sore upper legs. Even though your legs hurt, something that always seems to help is maybe a short run or a good stretch. Try to relax and hopefully you'll feel better! xoxo Kerra

this is gonna sound weird but i use baby soap to wash down there when i take a shower. it won't irritate the skin or anything b/c its made for infants. just "staying clean" will help it smell better.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but learning to dance in the rain. <3
