Hello,

I am a young woman and I have been experiencing heavy amounts of gas which led me to believe that I might have Fecal Body Odor . When I sit, my vaginal area gets very warm and I can feel gas coming out of my anus. 95% of the time I cannot smell this odor but when I do, it smells TERRIBLE!

People have made comments that it smells like poop and I do find that standing up makes me feel slightly better. When I went to my doctor, he diagnosed me with IBS and possible colon problems. Sometimes it feels itchy around my vaginal area and I now get dark brown (almost black) stool and vaginal discharge. The discharge and odor worsen considerably around my menstrual period. I also feel both nausea and stomach pain along with headaches.

Does anybody have an idea on what I should do to solve this issue and what it might be? I appreciate your feedback. I do not have TMAU as the odor only seems to be coming from my anal and vaginal areas, but I do sweat a lot in the underarm area.

Thank you for your help. I sincerely appreciate it.
