HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that the odor is due to bacterial vaginosis.
This causes a fishy vaginal odor.
It can be treated with topical or oral medications such as metronidazole or tinidazole.
If confirmed, your doctor can prescribe one of these for you.
I hope this helps
