Body odor: Some people have much more difficulty with body odor than others. Of concern would be if there is a skin infection causing the odor. This may be made worse if you have excessive sweating. If evaluation shows no infection, then recommendations are daily showers, a gentle anti-bacterial soap, and changes of underwear, combined with a moisture absorbing powder.

Vaginal infection: If you are referring to the genital area, it is possible that you have a vaginal infection. Your gynecologist can do an exam and determine if you do.
