A 'fishy' odour from the vaginal area it is normally associated with having an infection or that you have caught a sexually transmitted disease or even Thrush. This is almost certainly NOT the case. Usually this would indicate an imbalance of bacteria in the vagina called 'Bacterial vaginosis'. Click on the Vaginal Smell button to the right for more information.
