Why Do I Bleed And Have A Foul Smell During Sex?
I bleed when me and my husband mess around or do anything , but now I have a really bad smell and it's not fishy it's worse. I have been taking cipro and yeast infection all the time For probably 6 months now , I really think that none of this type of medicine works . This must be something else

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Bleeding and bad odor after having sex needs to be investigated.
Infection of the genital tract can lead to bad odor, however, it should respond to antibiotics and antifungals.
Since, it is not responding to antimicrobials, other pathology is suspected.
A clinical examination, cervical examination and cervical biopsy needs to be done to look for pre-neoplastic or neoplastic changes.
This is because malignancy of cervix commonly presents with bleeding and discharge with bad odor.
Thanks and take care
