Postponed for a week and leukorrhea is yellow and has an odor, what is the reason?

Patient's question:

What is the reason for a one-week delay in menstruation and yellow, smelly vaginal discharge without itching ten days after cohabitation?

Doctor's answer:

After cohabitation for ten days, if your menstrual period is delayed by a week, you can use a pregnancy test kit to check if you are pregnant, or you can have a blood test to check your HCG levels. In the early stages of pregnancy, some people may experience changes in their vaginal discharge, which may increase in amount or turn yellowish. It is recommended to first verify if you are pregnant. If you are not pregnant, you can wait for a while and observe carefully. If there is no itching, it is generally not a problem. For patients with yellow vaginal discharge, in addition to receiving proper medical treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care. For example, pay more attention to hygiene in your private area, and avoid sexual activity during medication.
