Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.

Are you sexually active ? This bad odor suggests infection. It could be just a bacterial infection. If you are sexually active it could be STD like Trichomoniasis.
Please consult Gynecologist and get an internal examination done. You need to have vaginal swab culture sensitivity test done so that you can be treated appropriately. If you are sexually active your partner also needs to be treated.
Do not have sex during treatment.
I suggest you just stop using any products.
Do not use douches, perfumes, etc.
Use loose cotton garments.
Eat healthy diet and take multivitamins to boost your immunity.
Attend all the follow up with your doctor until you get rid of this problem.

I hope this is helpful.
If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
