A member asked:

What would cause menstrual blood to smell really bad especially towards the end of the period? i have been on contraceptives (triphisil) and now diane 35 as of this month. please advise on what i should do.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Odor & bacteria: Usually a vaginal odor of this kind is the result of bacterial growth. Have your GYN MD assess the vagina for a potential bacterial infection that was "covered up" by the menstrual flow.
