Stupid of you to post when you lack elementary reading comprehension. Obviously she went to the doctor if she was tested for infections.
OP, get a second opinion, from a dr. who's willing to do a more thorough investigation. Good luck.

Count me in as an other "oops, look like we left some gauze up there" lucky winner. I was so grossed out but at least it solved the mystery of odor that would not die. With my second baby, I actually instructed the OB to double-check me before I was discharged, because there was no way I was going through that again.

I think you need to visit the doctor, it is one of the best thing to do and never let it go through like that too long or it might have complications that you cannot control in the future.

Agreed I read this and thought something was left in there. Happened to two friends

Thanks for sharing?

Forgotten/lost tampon?

Go to the doctor. Stupid to post this on a forum like this.

Did your doctor check to make sure they didn't leave something up there, like a piece of gauze?

I don't know what to do about this, but I have a terrible vaginal odor. I would say its fine for about 6-9 hours after I shower and then gets progressively worse until the next shower. Even in the shower, I can't get the odor to go away until I have literally put soap up into my vagina. I tested negative for any infection. The smell isn't really fishy, it's more like an acidic or sulphur smell I think? It's just really strong and awful smelling. This cannot be normal, right? What should I do?
