i think it sounds like bacterial vaginosis....the fishy smell is typical, but like the others have said, it could be something else, i dont think its thrush.

If it is a yeast infection, yogurt or probiotics may help.  However, make sure you follow up with your doctor on this.  If it isn't a yeast infection, you may need other treatment.

If there is a fishy odour, it may be chlamydia, ghonorrhea, trichomoniasis, or another of the bacterial infections that are easily cured. These infections usually come from unprotected sex--however, if its bacterial vaginosis, then there could be a host of contributing factors. A major risk factor of bacterial vaginosis is unprotected sex when you have a sensitive vagina, as a penis that has been several places can cause an infection that is not an STD. Yeast infections, for the most part, do not have a fishy odour. The odour means that it is probably a bit more than just yeast.
