Patient's question:
I am a working professional, and I spend more time sitting than standing, as I have to sit and work on the computer for long periods. In the past, I had little understanding of gynecological conditions and had never experienced any gynecological issues. Recently, I noticed some itching in my private area and slightly yellow discharge. So, what are the reasons for yellow discharge in women?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal itching, yellow discharge indicates vaginitis. It is recommended that you visit a gynecologist for examination, including routine vaginal discharge tests and vaginal secretion tests, to confirm the diagnosis before starting medication. Do not use medication blindly. Pay close attention to personal hygiene. Avoid wearing tight underwear and opt for loose cotton underwear. Do not use vaginal liquid for rinsing. During medication treatment, avoid sexual activity and consuming extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods.
