well if it smells and its not white then its an infection and im not sure WHY your dr would say not to worry? because thats not normal

and even if youve only had ONE sexual partner you can have an std
you need to be tested

Are you using lubricant during sex? If not, try that. The pain should go away. If it doesn't, go back to the doctor and try again.

Normal discharge can be anywhere from clear to white to slightly yellow. Brown discharge is also normal before and after your period. Discharge can have a little smell to it. It's not abnormal unless you can smell it when you are naked and standing up or you can smell it through your clothes.Discharge regularly changes throughout the cycle.

Honestly, I don't know much about PCO's so I don't know if it could be from that or not.

ok thanks thats helped a little but but i have tried using lubricant during sex and i think it makes it worse. i can smell it while i stand and threw my clothes it puts me off going to work as i dont want to smell like this and as for my doctor i am going to have to try again becuase this is just getting me no where its putting a strain on my relationship and i just feel let down by the whole service to be honest plus we want a family but this needs to be sorted first. thanks for your reply. . .

Well, having sex will make you smell bad- semen in your vagina smells. That's just a fact.

But yeah, I think you need to see a different doctor if it is that bad!

sure, I understand that. But there is usually semen that lingers in the vagina (in a little alcove up near the cervix)- if you aren't on birth control, that's what helps you get pregnant. But it just sits there and gets a little smelly after sex from time to time, even if you wash the labia.
