For the past couple weeks, I've had a VERY odd smell from my discharge. It almost smells like bread but not quite? It looks the same as usual but the odd smell is very obvious. Right when I pull my pants down, BOOM the smell hits me. The last time I visited my boyfriend he went down on me twice and never mentioned anything, and we're very open with each other so I'm assuming it tastes normal as well. (Nice to know, I'm sure)
I've never had intercourse, plus I've been on birth control for years, so I can't be pregnant. Also I've only messed around with my current boyfriend, so I doubt it's an STD. He isn't a virgin, but we've gone out for months so something STD-related would have shown up by now. Could it be a yeast infection?

Honey if you have a discharge with a smell you have a yeast infection going on.. As for boyfriend, keep him away from there especially with oral sex. Yeast can spread to the mouth as well, and if that happens and you kiss him, you can get it in your mouth as well.. Go to your local Drug Store and pick up some Monistat cream and use it for the full 7 days.. Don't have sex or oral sex during this time.. Give yourself time to heal..

That is not true about an STD would of shown up by now !! It can takes years for some STD"S to show up !! You can have an STD from a past lover and not know it unttil years later !! Ask your obgyn, this is true ! I've been there!! You may never know who gave it to you, thats is if your now b/f doesn't have anything!!! If he's telling the truth? Also a real bad fishy odor is a sign of an STD ! You should see your obgyn for sure to be safe and not sorry !!

Anytime there is a smell associated with discharge, you likely have an infection and need antibiotics. Most infections are not sexually transmitted. Sometimes the PH level is off, and you are more prone to getting something just by the amount of bacteria in that area.

It may be a yeast infection. See your doctor to be sure, you can get a cream for it and it will take care of it in a few days. If it is not yeast and it turns out to be an STD, you NEED to see your doctor for treatment.

Yes, you have a teast infection. And he could have thrush. You both need to be treated by a doctor.

that's precisely what it sounds like. if you don't have any other symptoms-pastey or cottage cheese discharge or bad itching, you may want to try something homeopathic like azo yeast, or eating yogurt.
