Patient's question:
I went back to my hometown with my boyfriend for the New Year's holiday last week. After returning, I've been feeling uncomfortable downstairs. My discharge has increased, it has a strong odor, and it's yellowish-green. Today, I searched online and found out it might be bacterial vaginosis. I don't want to go to the hospital because I feel very embarrassed. Can bacterial vaginosis be cured?Doctor's answer:
Abnormal leukorrhea, discomfort in the lower body, are a series of symptoms caused by vaginitis. Vaginitis is a common gynecological disease in clinical diagnosis and can be cured, so there is no need to worry. Vaginitis is divided into trichomoniasis, candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis, etc., depending on the pathogen. It is recommended that you do not take medication randomly and instead visit a nearby regular hospital for a vaginal discharge test. After identifying the type of vaginitis, you can then receive symptomatic treatment. Bacterial vaginosis is a disease that is not easily completely cured. Friends who have the condition should maintain a positive mindset and face it with a proactive attitude, as only this can enhance their confidence in combating bacterial vaginosis.
