Vaginal discharge: You need to make sure and go to the doctor, You could have a sexually transmitted disease or bacterial infection or a yeast infection or all three. If infection is left untreated can lead to infertility problems in the future.

Bacterial vaginosis?: The most common cause of vaginal discharge with odor is bacterial vaginosis, an overgrowth of mostly normal bacteria. The odor is typically fishy. Trichomonas, an STD, also can do it. Also, gonorrhea or chlamydia often go along with BV or trich. Usually no itching with BV, but your first symptoms might have been a yeast infection; you could have both. You need to see a doctor; find the time ASAP.
