Foul smell in vagina
I've been noticing foul (fishy kind of) smell in my vagina even when there is a discharge this smell comes frequently. Right now I'm on my periods still there's a fishy smell I'm fed up of it. Also it's been 1 year I am sexually active with my partner but when I intercourse with him I feel pain. What should I do?

Seems like a case of bacterial vaginosis. Antibiotics and personal+sexual hygiene are the mainstay of treatment.
