Common Questions and Answers about Fishy vaginal discharge
vagina
I've been having some discharge with a really "fishy" smell for a while now. Its not clumpy at all, and it has no color... its kind of transparent. I've been tested for any type of STD and the results came back negative. Could it be a Yeast Infection?
until a month or two i started this weird vaginal discharge that smells fishy and is more strong during intercourse...checked few sites and came across BV(bacterial infection) with symptoms like fishy smell,pain during sex,burn while pee and so on...but i dont understand my problem as i just have this smell issue and the rest is pretty normal...have been taking yogurt and using cider vinegar in my bath but still i m getting so frustrated..
Its probably just your hormones unless it has a fishy smell. Vaginal wash will help for about an hour.
Hello,
Going by your symptoms, it looks like bacterial vaginosis to me. It is the most common cause of abnormal vaginal odor and discharge. It is caused by a change in the type of bacteria found in the vagina.
In addition to unpleasant "fishy" vaginal odor, thin white or yellowish discharge from vagina may also be present. Diagnosis can be confirmed after pelvic examination and microscopic examination of the vaginal discharge. Treatment is by metronidazole and clindamycin.
green vaginal discharge is a sign of Trichomoniasis, which is an STD caused by bacteria. To my knowledge this is the only infection that causes green discharge. Bacterial vaginosis causes a fishy smelling white discharge, a yeast infection causes a thick clumpy white discharge. you need to see a doctor as soon as possible and get antibiotics.
I recently have had sex with my boyfriend of three months and have experienced a strong odor on one occasion which was very strong and fishy smelling like. Since that one particular incident i have not had a problem. Does this come and go on its own. I do not douche either. Should I. I am 49 years old and have sex everyday and bathe regularly.

My pediatrician told my mother that I should wash my vagina with vinager. That does work, the discharge and the smell (strong fishy smell, always) stop for a couple of days, though I don’t always remember to do it. If I did this for long enough would it stop permanently? This definitely got worse after puberty. Is there a reason for it being so high all the time, all these years?
Soon after having sex, always go and have a pee . It is preferable to have a wash straight away, but if you are too tired to do this, wash when you get up in the morning.
It may be that you have an allergy to the latex, so get your boyfriend to try the latex free condoms. Do not use soaps, bath or shower gels to wash below, normal water is fine. Using a soap with the same pH level as our skin is fine and baby washes may be fine.

Yeah, discharge is totally normal throughout pregnancy. That being said, itchy, irritated or super dry down there isn't good. See your Dr. Yellow/green, fishy smell discharge isn't good. See your Dr. Bright red, with or without pain may be a concern. See your Dr. Clear or white with no smell discharge is usually normal. If you're having a lot, like you need to change during the day, see your Dr.
Theres always cramps and a foul stinch from my vagina. The smell is fishy at times but sometimes it actually smells like gas. There is no itching, burning, or irritation. The color of the discharge is white/sometimes yellowish. The smell is loud and I sometimes smell it through my clothing. It's so embarrassing. I don't know what it is...could you help me out?

Hi, I'm a 25 year old virgin. I have had too much vaginal discharge for more than 2 years and a half for every single day. I visited 3 doctors but non of them could help.
to describe it fully, the first two weeks it was discharge with a fishy smell, but then just the smell disappeared, but the yellow discharge has continued since then. I also have unwanted hair on my face and body and I'm under treatment for my facial hair by electrolysis.
Hello, recently the past 4 times my husband and I have had sex, I have had a very foul odor coming from my vagina. It's not a fishy/yeast smell, it's more of a smelly BM smell. I have NEVER had this smell before! I am so embarissed when my husband and I have sex! I am very clean and have been taking showers right before intercourse. I don't smell at all during the day during my normal routine. It's just as my husband inserts his penis into me,I get this horrible smell!
