A member asked:
Menstruation blood have a foul smell and even discharge after the period smell terribly. what is the cause and how can i get it back to normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Smells are often an indication that germs have entered the genital tract & now feed on the menstrual debris. It might pass after flow stops, but may require you have the germ assessed in a doc visit where the origin of the odor can be confirmed & treatment decided.
