*May be TMI* ——— odor that won’t go away ):

Hi ladies! I am curious to see if anyone else has experienced anything similar to this or not & if so, what helped to cure it?

So I’ve always had issues down there. I would get reoccurring infections like every few months, which lead to be bring seen by multiple doctors. After years of trying to figure out what the issue could be & some of the doctors telling me that “some people are just unlucky”, I tried to take matters into my own hands by monitoring the things I ate, wore, etc. More recently, I have tried “natural alternatives” such as boric acid supplements which are supposed to help with chronic infections & yoni steaming which is supposed to help clean & regular vaginal functions.

Long story short, I keep experiencing a prominent smell that just won’t seem to go away. I am getting very discouraged & a lot less confident bc I feel like it is stripping me from my womanhood & confidence. I haven’t even been sexually active with my long term partner due to the embarrassment & the fact that I don’t want to tell him what is going on...

Now is not the time to visit the doctor’s either with all of the coved-19 mess happening & I’m not sure that I would even want to, especially after going for all of those years with no real medical solution.

If anyone has any suggestions or anything, please share them. I truly thank you in advance.
