For those wondering whether it is normal for the female organ to have an odour, the answer is yes. The natural secretions your female organ produces are meant to have a slight odour. Normal female organ smells include coppery, musky, meaty, or fleshy scents.

According to Healthline, female organ odour is the result of a combination of factors, including hormones, bacteria, and sweat. During puberty, the female reproductive hormone cause the female organ to produce discharge, which can have a slight odour. As women age, their hormones may change, and their female organ may become less acidic, allowing bacteria to grow and cause an odour. Sweating can also contribute to an odour, as sweat and bacteria mix.

It’s important to note that a strong odour doesn’t necessarily mean there is an infection. However, a foul odour, especially one that is fishy or has a greenish tinge, is often a sign of an infection and should be checked out by a doctor.
