Patient's question:
I used to have symptoms of vaginal itching and searched for information, feeling it should be vaginitis, but back then I didn't have time to go to the hospital. Now it's not itchy anymore, and there are no abnormalities—is it possible that it has resolved on its own? Should I still get a thorough check-up? By the way, what does normal vaginal discharge look like? About 10 days before my period, it feels like there's a lot of discharge, and when I go to the bathroom, it comes out with the urine, like a nosebleed. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
You should pay attention to the fact that sanitary underwear should be soft, made of cotton, and have good ventilation and breathability. You should change your clothes every day and wash your external genitalia with warm water every day. The basin and towels used for washing the external genitalia should be sterilized with boiling water. The underwear to be changed should be dried in the sun. From your description, the problem is not serious. Excessive vaginal discharge before menstruation, you should go to the hospital for a detailed examination, which can also prevent other inflammatory conditions. For patients, if the vaginal itching is severe, they should immediately receive symptomatic treatment and use appropriate medication, otherwise it may lead to a recurrence of vaginal itching. In addition, patients also need to pay attention to their diet and psychological care. I hope the answers above can help everyone. Thank you.
