Patient's question:
Hello, recently, I've noticed that the amount of white discharge in my underwear has increased compared to before, and I need to use pads now. I don't know what might be causing this increase in discharge. What should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
If there has been sexual activity, there may be an increase in leukorrhea, accompanied by external genital itching and a bad odor. This condition is likely caused by vaginitis. It is recommended to have a routine leukorrhea test at the hospital to determine the type of vaginitis, whether it is candidal vaginitis or trichomoniasis. For proper medication, it is important to treat the specific condition, and during medication, sexual activity should be avoided. The recurrence of increased leukorrhea poses serious health risks to women, and patients should avoid sexual activity during treatment. Personal hygiene should also be maintained. Finally, it is hoped that female patients can receive effective treatment.
