Best Answer

The human body smells, bodily fluids smell - we are human, thus why discharge smells: chemical makeup and bacteria present within the vagina influence this. As long as a person is healthy the vaginal discharge should not smell bad, it will typically smell musky but clean and may smell stronger at certain points in the menstrual cycle or when aroused. If the discharge smells bad it can be an indication of an infection, due to overgrowth of harmful bacteria or yeast, so seek treatment.

This could indicate a yeast infection, vaginitis, or possibly an STD.

Discharge may have an odor, but not a really offensive one.
