Vaginal discharge: Bacterial presence in the vagina can exist without producing a discharge or odor until intercourse provides a way to enable evidence to spread over the vaginal area and be detectable. On the other hand, sex with a partner who has other female partners may give you infections which can cause both discharge and odor. Consult your healthcare provider for tests.

I'm 21F and I had sexual intercourse for the first time about a week ago. The guy is 90% clean. I got my period 4 days later and even though it has stopped I can't get rid of a weird smell. No strange discharge, pain, itch?
