Patient's question:
A few months ago, due to abnormal discharge—specifically yellowish and slightly itchy—I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor diagnosed it as vaginitis and prescribed compound metronidazole. However, when my period arrived, I stopped taking it. After my period, the discharge returned to normal, and the itching subsided, so I didn’t pay further attention. Now, suddenly, the discharge has turned yellow again. I took compound metronidazole for a week, and then my period came. It’s been two days since my period ended, and the discharge is still yellow. Should I continue taking it? Additionally, after taking the medication, my period was heavier than usual, with blood clots.Doctor's answer:
For external use, it is best to wait until after the menstrual period. You need to pay close attention and observe carefully. Please pay attention to daily care, frequently changing clothes, underwear, and pants, maintaining cleanliness and hygiene to prevent disrupting the normal bacterial flora. Wishing you good health. Abnormal vaginal discharge can cause significant interference to patients. Once you notice your symptoms, you should seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, pay more attention to dietary issues, with light and simple foods as the foundation.
