Based on what you've described, you are being treated with an antibiotic for a urinary tract infection but started with some vaginal discharge that is colored and foul smelling. It would be best to inform the physician that treated you as potential causes include a yeast infection as a byproduct of being treated with antibiotics.

Macrobid is not known to cause your symptoms. Have your MD/GYn check you for vaginal infection
