Patient's question:
I am a 27-year-old female. After my menstrual period, I have experienced itching of the external genitalia, with a cottage cheese-like discharge containing small dots, and no odor. What could be the cause?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description and clinical diagnostic symptoms, it is possible that you may have a condition such as candidal vulvovaginitis. My suggestion is to visit a regular hospital for a routine vaginal discharge test. After diagnosing candidal vulvovaginitis, you can use topical clotrimazole ointment or miconazole vaginal suppositories for treatment. It is recommended that both partners be treated and change underwear frequently, with underwear being sterilized at high temperatures.
