What would cause a woman's vagina to smell ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bacteria: A change in the bacterial milieu will have a different odor than usual. This could be from an infection, from stress-induced changes, from dietary changes, from a foreign body (like a forgotten tampon). If it really smells bad, you should go to your doctor.

A member asked:
It is common to say that a woman's vagina smells "fishy". Is that its normal state or does having sexual intercourse w/out use of a condom trigger it?
