What kind of smell?: If it is fishy or unusual, you should have her checked by a pediatrician for a metabolic abnormality. If it is sour or smells like adult sweat, be sure she is very clean and perhaps apply some rubbing alcohol to this area each day to help keep it dry and discourage bacterial growth.

It happens: This can be normal body germs that colonize the area. It can also be the common odor glands of her body. These are under the control of the adrenal glands and are not necessarily part of any early puberty thing, it can occur that young.
