Patient's question:
A 20-year-old woman with a boyfriend and sexual activity has had abnormal vaginal discharge for about a year. It's yellow, thick, sometimes dry, and has a fishy, foul odor when smelled. There is no itching. She recently used a box of metronidazole, and after finishing it, her menstrual period arrived. After her period, her vaginal discharge still hasn't improved. What medication should she use in this situation?Doctor's answer:
According to the description, the abnormal white discharge has an odor, and the main consideration is bacterial vaginosis. It is recommended to do a routine examination of the white discharge for better targeted medication. You can also use Baizhi Qushi Wash to rinse and apply some topical medications to see if they work. In addition to treating the abnormal white discharge, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical fitness and slow down the recovery process.
