Question: The symptoms of gynecological diseases include a bad odor.

Patient's question:

I came to the convenience store again to buy liquid for washing! Because recently I always feel a strange odor! It might be because my underwear is too tight, causing inflammation! I washed it for about a week like this! But I still feel the strange odor! Did I get a gynecological disease? I also feel some lower abdominal heaviness and discomfort! I really don't know what to do! Is the odor in the lower body a gynecological disease? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

When a woman's vaginal discharge has an odor, there are several possibilities to consider:
1. Foul odor: Women with vaginitis caused by anaerobic bacterial infections, trichomoniasis, or Haemophilus vaginalis infections often have foul-smelling vaginal discharge.
2. Fishy odor: Vaginitis caused by Haemophilus vaginalis often results in a distinctive fishy odor in the discharge. Patients may also experience symptoms such as vaginal burning, pain, itching, and moist labia.
3. Pungent odor: If the vaginal discharge has a pungent odor, women should be cautious, as this may be associated with severe reproductive tract infections or tumors. Malignant tumors of the reproductive tract, severe endometritis, or severe cervical erosion can all lead to foul-smelling discharge.
