I know so many of you have emailed me telling me that your doctor has treated you for bacterial vaginosis but the "fishy" odor just won't go away. To begin with, you need to make sure you've been cultured and that you really have bacterial vaginosis and not some other resistant bacteria or trichomonas. There are strains of bacterial that are resistant to Flagyl (metronidazole), which is the first line of treatment.
It may be that you need to use a stronger treatment, like boric acid or gentian violet. The boric acid is a vaginal suppository (you put it in the vagina, you don't eat it) and although it sounds scary, it's actually pretty safe. Remember your vagina is acidic and the sperm is basic, so the boric acid reestablishes the acidity in your vagina and gets rid of this resistant bacterial vaginosis.
The vagina has a naturally acidic environment. This acidic environment protects against many diseases including yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV infections.
Now the gentian violet is an interesting treatment. We paint the vagina and the cervix with this violet solution, and it really works. But I mean it is really violet in there for a while. We don't like to use it a lot because your underwear gets purple and if you accidentally have sex, (you know like while your asleep or something, I don't know, I'm just using my imagination), then your partner will get a purple penis, but it does wash off, after awhile. Anyway, you shouldn't be having sex while being treated

visit a urologist! He will explain to you all the possible causes of this fishy smell. I had exactly the same symptoms and after a bunch of tests - I visited two urologists just to be sure, both of them told me that I have a smegma. It is a thick white matter that is a combination of shed skin cells and sebum. This one is founded in the area between the foreskin and the glans penis. Just to get one thing clear - it is normal to have this secretion in the genitals, but it becomes a problem when it builds up. It is very important for every one of us to control our penis discharge to notice the differences. We should learn once what is good and what is not good.
