How should one deal with a bad odor in the vagina?

Patient's question:

Gender: Female, have been sick for a long time, the vagina always has a bad odor, have seen for a while, no effect, please ask what should be done if the vaginal odor is strong

Doctor's answer:

There is a strong odor in the vagina, which could be a symptom of vaginitis. Poor hygiene of the external genitalia can lead to bacterial infections, causing a local odor. This condition is often accompanied by abnormal vaginal discharge. It is best to have a routine vaginal discharge test to check for any infectious conditions.
If the routine vaginal discharge test shows an infectious condition, oral medications such as Amoxicillin and Ofloxacin should be taken for treatment. The external genitalia should be washed with Jieryin, and underwear should be changed frequently.
In addition to treating the vaginal odor, patients should also pay attention to their diet, such as eating a balanced diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to achieve better therapeutic effects.
