Do you notice it also or is it just him who notices it?

Welcome to the board tahira.

I agree with Tish. Make an appointment with your gyn and get checked out. You may have something else going on or a new infection. If you get a clean bill of health from the doctor, then your DH should feel at least more confident that it's your natural odor.

It's also Summer, and you are probably sweating more than normal. Try bathing just before bed and see if that makes a difference as well.

Let us know how it goes.
