If you have vaginal discharge that has a bad odor, the only way to treat it is by knowing exactly what it is. To know what it is, you need to go to the doctor. Don't be scared...the tests are usually a medical exam (have you been to the gynecologist yet? you need to, since you are sexually active), or other tests may be blood sample or urine sample (just pee in a cup).
The longer you wait to go to the doctor, the harder your infection may be to treat. Sometimes women have vaginal infections that have nothing to do with being sexually active. It is important to call your doctor and talk about the symptoms you are having, so you can get treatment! When infections are left untreated, they can become more severe, so please call today.
