hm, the only thing that I can think of is that your body just naturally produces unpleasant smells down there. and that might not be something you can change..
if thats not it then maybe you think its worse than it is because if your husbands ok with it then it cant be all that bad

I'm not a doctor. But, I've seen specials on this very subject. There was an episode when they warned of using products like Summer's Eve too often. It can actually change the PH of the vagina. That can cause the beneficial bacteria to be killed. That bacteria feeds on the yeast. If the bacteria levels are too low, then the yeast can reproduce unchecked. The other part of that is the Anti-biotics can have the same results. Might be a good idea to ask you OB about that.
