Patient's question:
I have been experiencing very yellow discharge recently, and in the afternoon, there is also a very unpleasant odor in my private area, which makes me feel extremely embarrassed. Please ask: How should abnormal vaginal odor be treated?Doctor's answer:
You have excessive vaginal discharge and abnormal leukorrhea, and the symptoms mentioned should be considered as potentially caused by inflammation or infection, with the possibility of bacterial vaginosis. If you do not go to the hospital for a thorough examination, you can decide to clean the external genitalia with a gynecological cleansing liquid. If you are not sexually active, it is not suitable to scrub, then you can decide to take metronidazole tablets orally for anti-inflammatory treatment. For patients with abnormal vaginal odor, in addition to medication for relief, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care during treatment, such as paying attention to hygiene and maintaining cleanliness of the private parts. Finally, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations!
