A member asked:
I have been off of my period for about 4 days and my vagina still smells bad. i have washed it twice a day and it doesn't help. why does it smell bad?

If...: If the smell is like fishy in quality it could be related to a bacterial vaginosis, which is an infection of the vagina esp. if associated with burning sensation, urinary urgency and frequency, and discharge. If that is the case get evaluated with your GYN provider for treatment.
