I had to switch to organic cotton pads and pons for awhile. I also wore cotton undies. I used non irritating washing powders in my laundry and used feminine eve's body wash espicially for that part of your body. I used 1/2 c vinigar in my bath water every time I took a bath.(vinigar helped keep down on soap scum to ) I also used a hair dryer to dry down there. I slept w/ no undies on after 2 mo the smells seemed to improve. Who knows which was the problem.
