It Smells Bad During My Periods. Is It Normal To Have Bleeding With A Foul Smell?

I am 53 years old. I have been having my menses all these while till about 2 months ago when it stopped. The third month i started bleeding again but this time less but the thing about it is that it has a foul smell. I just had my pep smear and ultra sound of my uterus a few months ago and all is fine. Is it normal to have bleeding with a foul smell?
