Have you seen your Physician about the brown discharge and bad odor? If not, you should. Bacterial Vaginosis is easily treated but may be a sign of another underlying condition and can increase your chances of getting Pelvic Inflammatory Disease or even of contracting HIV and other STD's.
If you haven't seen a doctor yet, don't assume that because you have a smelly brown discharge that it is BV.
With antibiotics, BV can go away within a week or so-- but you have to be treated for it. Don't ignore it. Here is more information from EmpowHer that I definitely think you should read over...
