I'm not here to tell you what to think or do, but to give you as much honest, accurate information as possible. If I don't know an answer to a specific question, I'll research it before replying. I won't sugarcoat things; my job is to tell it like it is.
I've got a particular interest in sexual health and sexuality. I know a lot about fertility and pregnancy - and firsthand now, as I've just had twins. I'm also an accredited sexual health worker.

A yeast infection is an itchy and irritating infection in your vagina. You can have it without ever having had sex.
Yeast infections can cause an unusual odour, itching, burning, or discharge. This discharse is usually thick and white.
These can also be symptoms of other problems, so while yeast infections are actually very easy to treat, it's best to see a doctor so he/she can confirm this is what you've got.
They are quite common - most every woman will experience at least one in her lifetime. Your doctor should be able to tell quite quickly if this is the problem, and advise you in how to treat it. While there are home remedies, these are only effective for yeast infections and if that's not what's going on for you, they will not help at all.
The smell could be a result of the discharge or yeast infection, so if you cure the problem you'll get rid of the symptom.
Best of luck.
