Patient's question:
I have recently experienced an increase in leukorrhea, which is yellow in color, along with a bad odor. There are always brown secretions on my pants. I quickly went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was referred to the gynecology department. They advised me to seek treatment immediately, as it could lead to more serious consequences if left untreated. How effective is treatment in the gynecology department?Doctor's answer:
In gynecology, it is best to have a routine test for vaginal discharge to identify the presence of pathogens and then use antibiotics for targeted treatment. Gynecological issues are primarily caused by bacterial infections, leading to symptoms such as local congestion, edema, and epithelial degeneration in the cervix. Long-term irritation can cause fibrosis of the cervical glands, resulting in cervical enlargement and increased hardness. Additionally, vaginal medication, or treatments like laser, cryotherapy, and microwave therapy, can also be used.
