its a bacteria infection.yes it can be spread by sex...Vaginal odor is the most common, and often initial, symptom .. Odor may be recognized only after sexual intercourse. The alkalinity of semen may cause a release of volatile amines from the vaginal discharge and cause a fishy odor.
Increased vaginal discharge is typically mild to moderate.
Vulvar irritation is less common.
Dysuria or dyspareunia occur rarely.
Inquire about risk factors that may predispose patients to developing BV. Predisposing factors can include the following:
Recent antibiotic use
Decreased estrogen production of the host
Wearing an intrauterine device (IUD)
Douching
Sexual activity that could lead to transmission, as evidenced by the patient having a new sexual partner, an increased number of sexual partners in the month preceding the onset of BV symptoms, or having an increased number of lifetime sexual partners

that sounds like a flower......maybe gonorrhea

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Gonorrhea is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, a bacterium that can grow and multiply easily in the warm, moist areas of the reproductive tract, including the cervix (opening to the womb), uterus (womb), and fallopian tubes (egg canals) in women, and in the urethra (urine canal) in women and men. The bacterium can also grow in the mouth, throat, eyes, and anus.


here's

Gardnerella vaginalis (aka Hemophilus vaginalis, bacterial vaginosis). The infection is caused by a change in the balance of bacterial organisms that exist in the vagina.

or

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is characterized by the overgrowth of certain bacteria in the vagina, including Gardnerella vaginalis, Gardneralla mobiluncus, and Mycoplasma hominis. Bacterial vaginosis is grossly underdiagnosed because many women assume they have a yeast infection and treat symptoms with over-the-counter medications.
