BV?: You may have bacterial vaginosis (BV), this usually presents with clear, watery discharge with fishy odor. BV is often caused by period in a woman already colonized with the bacteria responsible for this, as the bleeding will change the acidity of the vagina allowing the bacteria to overgrow. See your family doctor or ob/gyn for evaluation and treatment.
