Patient's question:
I found that my leukorrhea is light yellow, with a slightly increased amount, and there's also some itching. Occasionally, I have mild lower abdominal pain. My period also often starts a few days earlier than usual. During my period, apart from the vaginal odor, it's possible that it could be a gynecological disease. How can I know if I have a gynecological disease?Doctor's answer:
The situation I mentioned may be bacterial vaginosis. If you experience a recurrence of large amounts of yellow discharge accompanied by a fishy odor, it would be convenient to undergo a routine examination of vaginal discharge to diagnose the type of vaginitis and then treat accordingly. Pay attention to good hygiene habits in daily life, frequently clean the external genitalia with warm water to maintain local cleanliness and dryness. You can use Clotrimazole suppositories for vaginal administration, which can effectively treat mixed-type vaginitis. When patients face the harm of gynecological diseases, we should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If gynecological diseases do not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly switch to a new treatment plan.
