My period has lasted about 6 plus days & my blood smells funny! i need help please tell me what it could be!

Could be normal: A normal period can last up to 7 days but it could also be a sign of an infection. The most common symptom of bacterial vaginosis is a foul odor. To know for sure you need to see your PCP or gynecologist for a full history, exam, and appropriate testing. Hope this helps.
