What Causes Foul Vaginal Odor?

I am a 45 yof and seem to be experiencing a vaginal scent that is concerning to me. It is not due to unsanitary hygiene but it smells like old blood. I have an IUD and when I check monthly to feel for the strings I can do so but it seems like I am starting to feel a lump or a growth. Could the two be related?

Hi,

I do understand your pain and discomfort. I have seen many cases with similar complaints. As per your history, please find my advice below:

1) Do a physical clinical exam to ruled out any growth present

2) Take Pancef with probiotics lactobacillus

3) Take Flagyl

4) Take [3-NITE vag supp]

5) After finishing all medications do a PAP TEST

I hope I was able to address your query. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write to me. Wishing you all the best.

Thanks,
Dr. Uday Nath Sahoo
