K, this is something they had actually made products for but no one ever talks about. Does your partner's seamen seem to really smell bad? After we BD, I have to stay there like a weirdo with my legs attached to bungee cords to hold them up but in the morning I have to wash 2-3 times and I can still smell funk.

The only time my bf's stuff smells is when he's dehydrated or when we've done it a few times that day. it's like he's scraping the bottom of the barrell and that's when it smells.
Maybe your DH isn't drinking enough water or sometimes what he's eating can affect it. Like onions, garlic, etc.

I think it is a Ph thing. I had the same problem with an ex boyfriend. Some peoples "juices" just don't mix well. I don't have any problems with my husband now....

Counting the days until my husband comes home from Afghanistan, December 4th at 8:33pm, but hey who's counting?!
I have the same problem, and it's not that is smells bad, just strong and distinktive. It doesn't smell right away, just the next morning so I tend to think it does have to do with the PH and it mixing with my fluids.
Ok, here is the TMI part, when I shower I wash first with soap then rinse really well, then I use my finger to clean just inside.
I don't use soap when I do this because I don't want to not be able to rinse it well. I then wash the out side area again with soap, that seems to help with the smell for me. (It has been recomended that I use one of the douch pouches where you can mix your own stuff, you know, the ones our mom's had before masingill came out, and to just use water to help flush it out, I haven't tried this, I don't like to douch and I don't want to get all dried out, but just thought I would let you know about that one)
My older sister tells me that after her and her DH BD she sits on the toilet for about 15 min to let it drain out, but that doesn't work to well when you are ttc and you are supose to keep it in there. I am really sorry about the TMI, wasn't sure how to put this all. Hope the info helps you though.
I normally don't have a smell except after we BD so I know it's due to something with the sperm.
