vaginal odor

I have been sexually active for about 3 years now and have been dating the same guy for almost a year. And just recently, my boyfriend has commented on an odor during/after sex. I personally can't smell anything, but I don't think he would mention it if it wasn't there. He always wears a condom and i've been on the same birth control for over a year. I read some stuff about pH levels and stuff but I don't know if its the same because he uses a condom. Im embarassed and at a loss :( help?

It's probably NOT the condom..so dont "fall" for that. I would suggest going to the doctor.  Generally, an odor in the vagina is the sign of an infection.  Go to the doctor just in case.
