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 to treat abnormal discharge odor?Doctor's answer:
Hello, leukorrhea is a beneficial liquid excreted from the female reproductive tract through the vagina. Healthy women all have leukorrhea. Under normal circumstances, leukorrhea has no obvious odor. Once a noticeable odor in leukorrhea reappears, it should be taken seriously. Therefore, when discovering an odor in leukorrhea, the first thing to note is how the body has changed. If the amount and characteristics have changed and are outside the physiological range, especially for women in the menopausal or postmenopausal age group, where tumors are more likely to occur, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Wishing you good health.For patients with an odor in leukorrhea, in addition to taking medication, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care training. For example, pay more attention to hygiene in the private area and avoid sexual activity during medication. Finally, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations!
