A member asked:

Hi, i have a funny fishy discharge since yesterday. i have only been with one partner for the last 8 years. me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex over the weekend and i did not have this smell, could you please advise, what else can be the cause?

Dr. Ralph Boling answered

This is likely: a bacterial vaginitis, changes in vaginal acidity can allow an overgrowth of bacteria. Not usually considered sexually transmitted, but i some cases can bounce back and forth between you and you partner. Easily treated with an antibiotic creme, but may need confirmation by seeing your doctor.
