Get it checked: by having vaginal secretions looked at under a microscope. It could be a sign of a vaginal infection or a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common cause of a foul smelling vaginal discharge. The smell tends to be worse when a woman is on her period, right after her period ends, and following sexual intercourse. BV is easily treated with antibiotics.
