fertekin,

Vaginal odor can be a sign of infection. Please see your doctor to get tested so he can determine what type of infection it may be so the proper treatment can be prescribed.

fertekin,

Are you having any type of unusual discharge? If you have been sexually active it is a possiblity, or some type of vaginitis or cervicitis.
