Yeast?: I suspect you have more than just bacterial vaginosis (BV). The main symptoms of BV are abnormal odor (often "fishy" and sometimes strongest after sex) and white or gray discharge, but not itching or irritation. Yeast infection (candidiasis. thrush) is the most common cause of these symptoms and can be triggered by antibiotics used to treat BV. Contact the doctor or clinic managing your BV.
