Sore Breast, Cramping, Increased Hunger, Foul Smell From Vagina, Periods Due. Any Ideas?
Hi I think I'm about to come on my cycle and I've always been irregular but I have not came on yet and last month it came on around the 9th..I'm having all the symptoms like heavy sore breast, emotional, cramping, increased hunger but I'm not pregnant..the issue that I am concerned about is the fishy foul smell that had been coming from the discharge..it's like the inside of my vagina smells rotten and it's not itchy but is white..sometimes it's thicker and other times its just a small amount..is it possible that its just signs of my body changing getting ready for my cycle to come on and the smell will go away or should I worry if it don't go away after a couple of weeks?
Hi! welcome to HCM! You are having premenstrual symptoms like heavy sore breast, emotional lability, cramping, increased hunger and symptoms dont seem to be related to pregnancy. Your main concern is of fishy foul odour.fishy foul odour with discharge is not normal.Bacterial vaginosis, or overgrowth of normally occurring vaginal bacteria, is the most common cause of vaginal odor. since you are having white thick discharge it can be fungal infection that is vaginal candidiasis. you must get yourself examined.your doctor might get vaginal swab culture and senstivity done,prescribe antifungal cream or oral antifungal medicines. hope this will help you.take care!
