Suggest Remedy For Foul Smell From Vagina

I ve been on the depo injection for 3 years, and ever since the beginning of the year I have been getting this awful smell that just attaches itself to my clothes and it s really uncomfortable being around people sometimes. I have noticed for the past couple months it s been getting worse to the point where I m carrying wipes with me and wearing period pads which have helped only slightly. It is really embarrassing, I feel safe with the injection but this smell is really bothering me now. I ve read about it being old blood or a yeast infection. How can I go about getting it treated? Does this mean I have to stop getting the injection? Help me!
