hi,
Anytime that you notice a strange odor you should ask your ob-gyn about it just to make sure. Sometimes strange odors can be a sign of an infection, although it is usually more of a strong smell or a fishy smell that is associated with infection (keep in mind that a healthy vagina does have some smell to it) as opposed to an onion smell.thank you.
