Patient's question:
I am a 60-year-old woman who has been sick for a long time, but it wasn't until a check-up that this disease was discovered. Please ask: Why does the vulva itch and the discharge is not much but turns yellow?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you described, it is mainly considered that you may have contracted vaginitis. However, vaginitis can be categorized into several types, and a precise diagnosis requires a thorough examination. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a detailed examination of your vaginal discharge and, under the guidance of a doctor, determine the most suitable treatment plan for your condition. Pay attention to hygiene in daily life, especially during menstruation and sexual activity, and maintain the cleanliness and dryness of the external genital area. Avoid using harsh soaps. Also, reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods.
