What tests are needed if there is inflammation in the vagina?

Patient's question:

Vaginal inflammation with yellow, rotten-egg-smelling discharge and occasional itching. During my period, the discharge is like yogurt, pale yellow, very viscous and rotten. A Chinese medicine doctor previously diagnosed me with damp-heat symptoms accompanied by vaginitis. After taking traditional Chinese medicine for five days, I felt much better, but now the symptoms have returned and are even worse. What tests should I undergo?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, have you carefully checked the test results? How are you feeling now? Based on your situation, it is recommended that you visit a gynecology department in the hospital for a leukorrhea test and a gynecological examination, and then use local medication. Yellow leukorrhea is a common gynecological condition that can easily occur. During medication, women should pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to the hygiene of the vaginal area, with a light diet as the foundation.
