Patient's question:
Leukorrhea is yellow and watery, with a foul odor. After the menstrual period, there is itching outside the vulva. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Changes in leukorrhea with a foul odor, accompanied by external genital itching, suggest the possibility of vaginitis. The fishy odor indicates bacterial or trichomoniasis vaginitis. It is recommended to use metronidazole suppositories for insertion into the vagina, while simultaneously using a three-herb cooling, anti-inflammatory, and pain-relieving decoction to rinse the external genitalia. Maintaining good hygiene and cleanliness of the external genitalia is important in daily life.Leukorrhea turning yellow is a common gynecological condition. During medication, women should pay attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and maintain frequent cleaning.
