Patient's question:
Hello! My leukorrhea is yellow and has a strong fishy smell. Sometimes, I also feel uncomfortable in my private area. Please ask: How should I treat increased leukorrhea?Doctor's answer:
Hello; Normal leukorrhea is white, thin, like paste or egg white, highly viscous without a foul odor, and in small amounts, with no adverse effects on women's health. During ovulation or pregnancy, an increase in leukorrhea is normal. If leukorrhea increases regularly with an odor, it may be a sign of vaginal inflammation or cervical erosion, among other gynecological conditions. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital's gynecology department for related tests such as vaginal discharge examination, and further treatment can be planned based on the test results. Leukorrhea is a common gynecological condition that can easily occur. During medication, women should pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised to pay close attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet. Wishing female patients a speedy recovery.
