Given the symptoms you report ( yellow
substance that smells bad), it seems that
you may be experiencing trichomoniasis.
Trichomoniasis infection is common in
women and it's almost always spread
through sexual contact. The most symptoms
include yellow,or green discharge, foul
odor, increased amount of discharge, and
itching. You can consult a gynecologist
for a correct diagnosis.
