Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.Your problem is most likely Bacterial vaginosis.A fishy like smell is characteristic for this.A pelvic examination should be done and swab should be taken and gram staining for identification .For such condition in my patients i treat with combination of antibiotics like metronidazole or clindamycin plus clotrimazole in form of vaginal suppository or oral tab.I also recommend them to use intimate wash regularly to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH and there by prevent getting further infections.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
