Accepted Answer

Odor: Vaginal odor may vary throughout your menstrual cycle and may be especially noticeable right after having sex. Normal sweating also can cause a vaginal odor. Though it may be tempting to douche or use a vaginal deodorant to decrease vaginal odor, these products may actually increase irritation and other vaginal symptoms.Generally, if you have vaginal odor without other vaginal symptoms, it's unlikely that your vaginal odor is abnormal.

Accepted Answer

: By far the most common cause of strong vaginal odor is bacterial vaginosis, an overgrowth of mostly normal vaginal bacteria. The main treatment is the antibiotic metronidazole by mouth. BV can be triggered by STIs  if at risk (e.g. gonorrhea, chlamydia) and the STI trichomonas causes similar vaginal discharge and odor. See a doctor, such as your gyn, for diagnosis, testing and treatment. Good luck
