Patient's question:
I am in the late stage of pregnancy now. When I go to the toilet, I feel it's very smelly and there is some discharge. It's usually more in the morning and evening. The discharge also has a strong odor. This kind of situation hasn't appeared again before. Is the abnormal discharge in the late stage of pregnancy caused by an infection? I am quite hygienic. What should I do now? Will it affect the fetus?Doctor's answer:
