Is it true that other people cannot smell another person's vaginal odor?
That is what I read on articles. But yet remember sitting on a classroom last year and a boy told me my vagina stinks. I can also smell the same odor coming from other people. How can I prevent the odor next time?

Vaginal odor cannot be smelled by another person through clothing unless there's a serious infection going on down there. Bacterial vaginosis gives the vagina a fishy/foul smell, which others can smell. Or, yeast infections at times can give off odor that others can smell (bread/yeast smell).

Vaginal odour cannot be smelled by other people unless you have a very bad infection, & have not washed yourself properly. Every person has an odour of sorts...but again, if it's a very bad smell, it could be a sign of infection.
As for you being able to smell other peoples' vaginal scent...I highly doubt it. That idea was very likely planted by the boy in your class. Besides, how does he know just where the smell is coming from!!!???

hmm.. Vaginal oder occurs when batrica is 'down there'. If your sexually active i'd get cheaked. It shouldnt smell foul down there. A vagina doesnt smell that much that someone would smell it. If you feel that you dont need to be cheaked and are still worried about the smell, maybe wear tights when wearing a skirt, Or try putting talcum or babypowder down there. It smells nice and it should help the smell stop. By the way you should have slapped the boy who said that. Cheeky fuc*ker.
