Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem is most likely due to bacterial vaginosis. A fishy odor is characteristic for this. Pelvic examination by a gynecologist and swab will help to rule out this. If you were my patient with such condition then i would recommend using vaginal suppositories with combination of metronidazole and clotrimazole.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
