Hey. I shower 1 or 2 times a day
depending on if I have time. Some times
throughout the day, sitting down, and I'll
get wafts of a bad smell... I'm pretty
sure its from the groin area. However
15minutes later there is no smell, or I
have just gotten used to it? This is kind
of troubling me because I feel sometimes
other people could smell me. Sometimes
this also happens when I get anxious or
nervous before lets say a test. Any ideas
on how to make the smell go away?
Thanks

are you a particularly sweaty person?
Sometimes even when you're clean, sweating
in between your legs can create quite the
smell. There's nothing to be ashamed of...
it's perfectly natural. There are skin
friendly sprays that you can buy at any
pharmacy that you can actually use to help
alleviate this problem. I hope this helps!

Not usually... the hike to the third floor
with my backpacks on a doozy but no.
Could it be that I sweat at night? I
sleep with jogging pants/shirt/hoodie/heat
blanket now that its cold... and sometimes
wake up a little sweated. Most mornings I
don't have time to get off a shower before
school.
Thanks for your help so far.

^ ignore him.
Some people just have a natural odor that
can be a bit potent at times. It's nothing
a little bit of deodourant can't take care
of!

u can also use some powder..it absorbs all
humidity..or maybe a combination of
deodorant and powder..there r special
powders for that region at pharmacy. U can
also try wet-tissues (if u understand
what i mean). if u r away from home..and
sweating..and feeling bad..actually i know
that there r for women..never checked for
men..but who cares? they smell good and
they r quite refreshing..if u combine all
three maybe it works..y u don't ask a
friend? (i mean to tell u if u smell,
maybe this is just yr impression..)

There is powder- I can't think of what
it's called but it's used for feet and any
areas that get sweaty like the groin.

I can't imagine how it gets that sweaty
down there. Should I try and find even
looser boxers maybe?

Cotton tighty whities might actually work
better to absorb the sweat.

In between your legs is one of the warmest
parts of your body. You'd be surprised!
