Patient's question:
I have been experiencing yellow discharge recently, somewhat like mucus, without any pain. However, after a few days, it turns semi-transparent, but it becomes yellow again after sexual intercourse. What could be the reason for this? Medical history: I have previously had vaginitis.Doctor's answer:
White discharge resembling thick mucus may indicate a gynecological inflammation, such as vaginitis, or it could be due to internal heat. In this case, local treatment with metronidazole suppositories may be helpful. Since the fungus may not be Candida, clotrimazole might not be effective. It is recommended to use miconazole nitrate suppositories inserted into the vagina, treating for 2 to 3 courses, while also taking fluconazole orally for two weeks. The condition should improve. Pay attention to a light diet and avoid spicy foods.
