Leukorrhea is viscous and yellow-green, with occasional external itching of the vulva. How should it be treated?

Patient's question:

Female, 24 years old. Two weeks ago, she experienced vulvar itching. After her menstrual period, the itching symptoms disappeared. She then noticed thick, yellow-green vaginal discharge, which was different from her usual colorless and odorless discharge. A vaginal discharge test (Super Test) showed positive for hydrogen peroxide and leucocyte esterase 1. No other bacteria were detected, and other results indicated "hidden wings."
What kind of treatment can she take to address this condition? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Based on the careful examination of the leukorrhea test results you provided, it may be related to bacterial infections such as bacterial vaginosis, cervicitis, cervical cysts, abnormal leukorrhea, and external genital itching. It is recommended that you follow the guidance of a doctor to clean the external genital area thoroughly with a gynecological wash solution every night, and then insert metronidazole suppositories or nitrofurantoin vaginal suppositories into the vagina for treatment for about a week. Observe the situation carefully afterward. If there is an effect, you may need to continue treatment for another week or so.
