Hello, i was recently diagnosed with herpes type 2. but lately i've been noticing a odor that almost smells like bleach or chlorine that is very strong. it has also been very itchy and irritated. i don't know if this could possibly be from my detergent or

Bacterial vaginosis?: The main cause of strong vaginal odor is bacterial vaginosis, i.e. overgrowth of mostly normal vaginal bacteria. BV is more common in people with other genital infections, including herpes or other STDs; and some STDs can cause such odor themseves, especailly trichomonas. It's not from your detergent. You'll need to see your doctor for diagnosis and proper treatment. Good luck~

Could be many things: It could be many things from detergent to vaginal infection. Change your detergent and rinse your underwear thoroughly before wearing, and if that doesn't solve the problem see a GYN MD.
