Is leukorrhea in a white cream-like consistency a sign of vaginitis?

Patient's question:

I had a miscarriage last month due to an accidental pregnancy at 40 days. Now, 10 days after my second period, I feel that my discharge is a bit abnormal—it's white and creamy. At first, I thought it might be a vaginal infection, but after a thorough examination, it turns out it's not. What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the time your menstruation has already ended, it has been about ten days. Currently, you have noticed white, paste-like discharge again. However, upon careful examination, the discharge appears normal. This could be a sign of ovulation, as discharge tends to increase in volume during this period. If it is not ovulation, this symptom could also be caused by cervical inflammation. I recommend you visit a doctor for a colposcopy to check the cervix for any issues.
For patients with vaginitis, in addition to receiving proper medical treatment, dietary therapy can serve as a supplementary treatment. In daily life, it is important to maintain a balanced diet and avoid foods.
