Patient's question:
I recently feel like I might have a gynecological disease. My legs have been wet and there's been constant leakage. There's a lot of white discharge, it's yellow, and it smells bad. My friend said it's like vaginitis, and she told me to use hot water to sterilize my underwear. What are the early symptoms of vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis is primarily characterized by abnormal vaginal discharge, which significantly increases in amount and is accompanied by itching and a bad odor. The discharge may resemble cottage cheese or be purulent and yellow, among other forms. Your symptoms appear to be those of bacterial vaginosis. If you are sexually active, you can use Wufei Jie to rinse the vagina and apply Butozolate suppositories for a course of treatment. It is crucial to avoid sexual intercourse during this period, and your underwear should be sterilized.In addition to treating vaginitis, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a pleasant mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate recovery.
