Answer #1

A vagina does have a smell, but it should not be a strong bad odor. If there is too strong of an odor, you will need to see a doctor because that usually signals an infection or poor hygiene.

Answer #2

Fishy Smell - usually indicates a yeast infection. A vagina does have it’s own odor, but it should not smell strong and should not smell fishy. That is the first sign of an infection. You need to see your doctor right away before it get’s worse.

Answer #3

It’s really hard to say. It’s normal for vaginas have a bit of an odor, it’s how strong the odor is is what you should be worried about. Is there an odd-colored discharge coming from your vagina? If so you may have a yeast infection. It can be easily treated by prescribed medication. I advise talking to your doctor.

Answer #4

Get one of those screening tests to see if you have an infection..

Answer #5

Answer #6

Answer #7

I used to work in Ob/gyn. Fishy is not normal. It is Bacterial Vaginosis and is easy to treat. Your doctor will give you an antibiotic called Metronidazole. Dont drink while taking it. If you do have trichomoniasis, the same antibiotic is used.

Good luck…
