The smell of my cycle is way different than normal. It kind of smells like a metal. And my cycle is lighter if that has something to do with it. Do I have an infection? What can I do, if so?

Blood sometimes has a coppery scent, if that is what you mean by 'metal'.

A lighter then usual menstrual cycle does not mean you have an infection.

Any concerns should be addressed by your doctor. There is no way to offer a diagnosis, not even a guess, online.

If you're worried, make an appointment with your doctor.

Good luck.

Maybe you can be more specific next time, so time isn't wasted with sketchy details first time.

See your doctor.
