Best Answer

Yes, a yeast infection can cause bad vaginal odour so add the stronger scent of menstruation and the fact that menstrual flow can further impact on vaginal flora then it can cause bad odour. However most of the time bad odour during menstruation is due to poor hygiene or using unhealthy menstrual products such as tampons or commercial menstrual pads (rather than menstrual cups, softcups, cloth menstrual pads, or organic menstrual pads).
