Please what’s the best way to tell my girlfriend that she doesn’t really smell very good down there without hurting her feelings?

Category: Vaginal Smell

Wondering how to tell your girlfriend she smells down there without hurting her feelings? This is one of those delicate conversations that require kindness, tact, and timing.

First, avoid bringing it up during or right after sex. That could affect her sexual confidence and make her feel embarrassed. Instead, find a neutral time to bring it up or if you’re shy, consider texting her gently.

Start with reassurance. Let her know that you love being close to her and that this conversation is coming from a place of care, not judgment.
You might say something like:

“Babe, I really love being close to you, and I want us to always be honest and comfortable with each other. I’ve noticed a little change in your scent lately and just wanted to ask if everything feels okay with you.”

This way, you’re opening the door for her to talk without making her feel attacked. It also gives her the space to check in on her hygiene, health, or even diet (which can affect vaginal smell).

You can also suggest doing couple wellness routines together like showering together, eating gut-friendly foods, or visiting a clinic for general checkups to make it feel more supportive than critical.
