A member asked:

Past 2 weeks i have noticed a "fishy" odor only during and after sex. he has bad teeth, could oral sex be the cause of this? no reg. odor or discharge

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vaginal infection: This sounds like you probably have a vaginal bacterial infection. See your doctor as there is an infection that causes a typical fishy odor. This can be treated with antibiotics.
