Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
If you suffer from a lot of vaginal odor or foul smell, then your doctor can attempt a vaginal cleaning in the office visit with chemicals to wash of the infectious agent and normalize the vaginal pH.
If you did not have any symptoms, then you should report this to higher authorities.
Take care.
