Hallow Dear,
Foul smell after intercourse indicates infection.
It could be that you have got infection in the genital tract and hence foul smelling.
It is possible that your boy-friend is having infection in his genital tract and hence his semen is mixed with pus. After intercourse, some amount of semen always flows out of vagina. If it is mixed with pus, it will cause foul smelling vaginal discharge.
By this time, probably both of you could have got infected. This seems to be some sort of Sexually transmitted infection, mostly gonorrhoea.
Please consult your Gynaecologist or STI specialist. Both of you should start the treatment simultaneously lest the risk of reinfection. Pus discharging infections can usually be treated by some antibiotics.
I hope, this helps you.
