my vagina smells bad during pregnancy

Hi Moms, I'm currently 20 weeks pregnant, and I've noticed a strange, unpleasant smell from my vagina recently. I'm a bit worried and embarrassed to talk about it with anyone close to me, so I'm reaching out here for some advice. I am worried someone could smell it from afar... I am afraid to have my husband nearby. Has anyone else experienced this during their pregnancy? Is this normal, or should I be concerned? What can I do to manage it? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

Because of hormone imbalance due to pregnancy, discharge release will cause smell or discolouration. You are to seek advice from your gynae upon check up. Because this can affect during birth through vaginal birth and can cause itchiness, fungal infection.
