Symptoms of vaginal odor (vaginitis) vary widely among women.
* The most notable symptom of bacterial vaginosis is an excessive grayish white vaginal discharge, unlike normal vaginal discharge.
* The discharge may smell "fishy." The vaginal odor is usually worse after sex.
Symptoms usually occur within the first 7 days of the menstrual cycle, when hormone levels may change the normal environment of the vagina, or when a change in the pH of the
vaginal odor has occurred
