Patient's question:
I had sex with my boyfriend two days ago. We had sexual intercourse, but after the sexual activity, my external genital area became itchy, and my vaginal discharge increased significantly. The discharge is milky white. I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis. They prescribed medication, but it hasn't improved. On the third day after sex, my discharge increased again, and it is still milky white. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
After sexual activity, the symptom of vaginal itching reappeared. This may be due to neglecting hygiene during sexual activity, leading to bacterial infection. Currently, you can wipe once a night to maintain local cleanliness and dryness of the eyes. Additionally, under the guidance of a doctor, vaginal suppositories can be used for local treatment, which is more effective than systemic medication. Leukorrhea is an easily recurring gynecological disease. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to vaginal hygiene, with a light diet as the foundation.
