Patient's question:
I'm about to get my period, and my lower abdomen has been a bit painful these last couple of days. My discharge has also been increasing continuously. Today at noon, when I went to the bathroom, I noticed that my discharge was like cottage cheese. Hello, what could be the situation?Doctor's answer:
Increased white discharge with a curd-like appearance may indicate a possible case of candidal vulvovaginitis. Diagnosis requires laboratory tests for routine vaginal discharge. There are several types of vaginitis, each with different characteristics and requiring different treatments. It is recommended that you make time to visit a hospital for a gynecological examination and routine vaginal discharge tests. It is not frightening to have increased white discharge. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as timely treatment is provided in the early stages, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
