How should vaginal itching and increased vaginal discharge be treated?

Patient's question:

Female, thirty-three years old, I am pregnant, but I have recently noticed that my leukorrhea is not normal, the color is dark, and the odor is particularly strong. I am very worried that it will affect the child. Please ask: How should vaginal itching and increased leukorrhea be treated?

Doctor's answer:

According to the patient's description, there is vaginal itching, which improved after medication. There is also a stinging sensation during urination and an increase in vaginal discharge with a bad odor. It is considered related to vaginal inflammation and vulvar inflammation. It is recommended that the patient pay attention to preventing colds, get more rest, change underwear frequently, rinse the perineum with warm salt water, and use oral metronidazole effervescent tablets. During the treatment period, the patient needs to follow a balanced diet, maintain a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
