Suggest Treatment For Foul Smelling Vaginal Odor
Question: Why does my vagina have a foul odor and a dlight discharge
Brief Answer:
infection, hormonal, lowered immunity or natural causes
Detailed Answer:
Hi there, welcome to HCM,
It would depend on the amount, colour, consistency, and blood stained or not.
Does this have any relation to your menstrual cycle. If it is very bothersome then get the discharge sent for culture and sensitivity to a lab by taking a low vaginal swab. Also do you have symptoms of itching or burning micturition? As if you have those it would indicate infection. Discharge related to menstrual cycle could be hormonal. If you have curdy discharge it would indicate fungal infection.
Hope this helps.
