What medicine is used for vaginal odor?

Patient's question:

I am usually quite conscious of personal hygiene, especially private hygiene. But recently, I've noticed a particularly embarrassing symptom: my vagina always has a bad odor, although there are no other discomforts. In my case, what medicine should I use for the vaginal odor? Urgently seeking an answer.

Doctor's answer:

There is a foul odor in the perineal area, which may be caused by bacterial vaginosis or candidal vaginitis. It is recommended to check for cottage cheese-like discharge or frothy discharge. Additionally, vaginal (vaginoscopy) and ultrasound can be used as auxiliary diagnostic tools. Under the guidance of a doctor, antibiotic vaginal suppositories should be used for anti-inflammatory treatment. During medication, sexual activity should be avoided.
In addition to treating the vaginal odor, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet and maintain a positive mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and speed up recovery.
