Patient's question:
I am pregnant, but I have noticed that my vaginal discharge has been abnormal recently. The color is dark, and the odor is particularly strong. I am very worried that it might affect the baby. Please ask: How should I treat the abnormal vaginal odor?Doctor's answer:
The vagina is normally odorless, and leukorrhea is like egg white. If the vagina has an odor, it is mainly due to abnormal leukorrhea, which may appear purulent, like curd, or streaked with blood. These are all signs of inflammation. In most cases, they are caused by inflammation. It is important to pay attention to vaginal hygiene, change underwear frequently, and cleanse the vagina with clean water. However, do not overuse external cleaning products like Jie'eryin, as excessive scrubbing can disrupt the normal acidic environment of the vagina. Only clean when a doctor has diagnosed a specific condition.
