Question 3

why do i have an odour but my panty shield and underwear dont have the odour on it?

Accepted Answer

Vaginal odor?: panty shields are a choice, but aren't necessary. While there is a "smell" to a vagina, this is nothing to be ashamed of or try to cover up. It's normal. Sometimes a panty shield is not "breathable", and may contribute to vaginal odor or overgrowth of bacteria or yeast. Ur panties likely don't smell Bc of the shield. Try cotton panties and no shield, and see your ob to be checked for infection.

Question 10

how long can precum survive on your underwear?

Accepted Answer

Nobody knows: Sperm don't live in the air, on clothes, or on other items. Their natural habitat is warm, fresh semen... not on hands or household objects. Fresh semen on hands, condoms, etc., that is quickly put into a vagina can still lead to pregnancy. Realize that scientists are NOT spending time testing how likely or unlikely pregnancy would be in such situations. Hands wiped very dry should be safe.
