Hi,
The rotten potato smeel before or after periods may be due to
- Sexually transmitted diseases
- vaginal infection
- bad local hygiene
These exacerbate in days surrounding menses, because of excessive vaginal secretions & bleeding.
You need high vaginal swab culture for diagnosis & an experts' advice for relevent treatment,to be taken by both the partners.
thank you.
