Comment on Is it unusual if I am a woman but I do not smell "fishy" down there?

In my experience, most don’t smell fishy. The scent you’re describing sounds pretty normal. Smell will vary person to person, and is largely dictated by vaginal flora and hygiene. Your crotch is essentially an armpit, so it should smell a little sweaty and gross after a long day, just like your pits. Putrid/fishy smell is typically a sign of abnormal flora, which can be caused by bacterial vaginosis or a yeast infection.
If your cooch has always smelled that way and you bathe regularly and don’t have any weird discharge or symptoms, don’t worry about it. You’re totally normal.
