Patient's question:
I have had abnormal white discharge for a long time, probably about two years. At first, it was just increased in amount with a clear color, but later it became thick and slightly yellowish. Now, I can see yellow, sticky discharge in my underwear every day, like mucus, and it's quite a lot, which is very uncomfortable. When I go to the bathroom, I can also wipe off a lot with toilet paper. Is this a fungal infection?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation and symptoms you described, it is currently considered that there may be a case of bacterial vaginosis.Guidance and suggestions: Hello, for candidal vaginitis, the main symptom is some white discharge that appears like curd, which is accompanied by severe itching. However, your current white discharge is yellowish, indicating a bacterial infection. You can use topical medication, such as metronidazole-based drugs, for treatment. Continuous use for 1~2 weeks should be sufficient to cure it. Additionally, pay attention to hygiene and clean daily. The recurrence of abnormal white discharge has significantly affected the health of women. During treatment, patients should avoid sexual activity and pay attention to personal hygiene. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive effective treatment.
