why do i have a foul smelling heavy period with no cramps.
Hello! Im 18 and im currently having an abnormally long period with a very heavy flow i’ve never had this bad before and a rotten smelling thick bloody discharge. I have been pretty stressed recently but I don’t think stress can cause this. This is the 8th day i’ve been on it. My last period started on may 9th and ended on may 15th. before that i had not have a period for over 11 months . it also had a very heavy flow but did not smell this rancid or bleed as much as my current one. This current period has given me constant diarrhea and no cramps or mood swings. I have been off my meds because i ran out of refills for 21 days now (i used to take 10mg aripiprazole, 80mg duloxotine, and bupropion HCL XL 300mg.) i dont know if that would effect my period but it’s worth a shot putting it out there. I feel as though something is really wrong but I cannot afford a doctor/emergency care because i have no insurance or income. Has anyone been in a similar situation? Does anyone know what’s happening with my body?

Often a rotten-meat smell can be associated with a forgotten tampon. Do you think there is a possibility one has been in your body since your last period?
