Patient's question:
Doctor, my period just ended, and my vaginal discharge is yellow and foul-smelling, except for a small amount of white discharge. There's only a little bit of burning and itching in the outer genital area. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is likely that the symptoms are caused by a fungal vaginal infection. For a fungal vaginal infection, it is recommended to use nystatin and sodium bicarbonate to rinse the external genitalia. Wear comfortable and breathable cotton underwear, and make sure the underwear is exposed to sunlight. Avoid spicy foods and maintain a light diet. During treatment, sexual activity is strictly prohibited. Leukorrhea turning yellow is a common gynecological condition. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and change their underwear frequently.
