Answer

XXXXXXX,

Period abnormalities can be due to many things including stress, weight gain/loss, thyroid, hormonal imbalance, infection, illness, medications, polyp, cyst, amongst other reasons. The only way to know for sure exactly what is going on is to see your doctor for an exam and testing.
Any type of discharge that has a foul odor is indicative of some type of infection going on. If the discharge is like cottage cheese, and smells like yeast then you could be experiencing a yeast infection. You would need to see your doctor for a positive diagnosis.
