    There's really nothing we can do over the internet. Has she been to a gynecologist yet? She really needs to see a doctor. She may have some sort of infection. And douching is not always a good idea. She should only be doing that if her doctor has recommended it. But again, she needs to be seen by a doctor.

    I agree with Justcurious. She needs to see her OB/GYN.

    Douching can actually be making the odor worse. Douching is NEVER a good idea without a doctor's order as it removes the right balance of normal flora from the vagina and actually causes problems rather than curing them.
