I’m afraid that my vagina is too smelly to have oral sex. What should I do?

Lots of people with vaginas are concerned about this. Many people with penises are concerned about how they will smell or taste when someone’s performing oral sex on them, too. If you’re healthy and take regular showers or baths, then only a normal scent and taste will be present. Every vagina and every penis has a natural scent to it. This is perfectly normal. If a person is especially concerned about the smell of their vagina, they can gently wash the vulva (the external sex organs, including the clitoris, the labia and the vaginal opening) with water and mild soap before doing anything sexual. A person with a penis who is concerned can wash his penis and scrotum as well with water and mild soap as well.

What you eat and drink can affect your scent. Eating lots of fruits and vegetables, avoiding high-fat food (like chips, fast food, etc.) and drinking a lot of water rather than sodas or other sugary drinks can help maintain vaginal health.
