Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Yes: Foul smelling discharge needs to be evaluated. The most common cause is a nonsexually transmitted overgrowth of bacteria called bacterial vaginosis. Testing for other sexually transmitted disease may need to be done as well. Over the counter RePHresh can be used while you wait for an appointment
