Patient's question:
What is the normal discharge of a woman? I have noticed that my discharge has been very yellow and thick lately, like mucus. Please ask: How is it generally treated when there is a foul odor in the discharge?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there is a foul odor in the white discharge, and the odor becomes stronger after sexual activity. If your routine white discharge test is normal with no abnormalities, it is unlikely to be a significant issue. It may be related to poor hygiene. This is likely caused by poor hygiene during sexual activity. Additionally, it is best to undergo specific examinations such as a colposcopy to check the condition of cervical inflammation. Pay attention to personal hygiene, change underwear and pants frequently, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. For foul-smelling white discharge, you can use diluted saltwater or potassium permanganate solution for cleaning and treatment. Foul-smelling white discharge is an easily recurring gynecological disease. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients always maintain clean external genitalia, change underwear frequently, and finally, wish female patients a speedy recovery!
