Hi, I think you have got some vaginal infection. Get yourself examined by a gynecologist. You may need some antibiotics and antifungal drugs. You may need a vaginal pessary of antibiotics and antifungal drugs also. Fibroids are not a reason of bad smell in vagina. Regarding the fibroid, if you have any period problem or if size of fibroid is big, you can go for medical treatment or surgical treatment depending on your age and desire.
