Bacterial vaginosis: Far and away the most common cause of strong (often fishy) vaginal odor is bacterial vaginosis, an overgrowth of mostly normal bacteria. The odor is often strongest after sex. BV is more common in women with STDs, especially gonorrhea, chlamydia or trichomonas -- especially at your age. See a gynecologist or STD clinic (or Planned Parenthood) ASAP. Your partner should be checked too. Good luck.
