Can a white discharge with a bad odor be diagnosed online?

Patient's question:

I am still in university and have not had sexual activity, but recently I found that my leukorrhea is not normal, with issues in color and odor. Can leukorrhea with a bad smell be diagnosed online?

Doctor's answer:

Leukorrhea is divided into physiological leukorrhea and pathological leukorrhea, with the latter often caused by inflammation.
Clear, translucent, viscous leukorrhea: This type is commonly seen in chronic cervicitis, cervical canalitis, and after estrogen use.
Foamy leukorrhea: Often associated with trichomoniasis.
Cheese-like leukorrhea: Characteristic of candidiasis.
Yellow (purulent) leukorrhea: Most commonly caused by bacterial infection.
Bloody leukorrhea: Often seen in cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, vaginal tumors, etc.
It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a routine leukorrhea examination, take traditional Chinese medicine orally, and use suppositories and rinses for treatment.
