Question:
My problem is that I have been experiencing somewhat
of an odor during sex and have been told that a woman's
diet can affect the odor of her secretions. I have a pap
every 6 mo. and nothing irregular has ever came up. Is this
a true statement, and if so, is red meat a factor?

A woman's diet certainly affects the smell and taste of
her vaginal secretions. Some foods have stronger effects
than others, i.e. soy sauce. I am not sure, however, how
much of an impact red meat would have on vaginal
secretions. If it is something you're concerned about,
perhaps you can refrain from eating red meat for a while
to see if you notice a difference.
Thank you for visiting the Sexual Health Network.
