Patient's question:
I am a virgin. My discharge has been yellow all year round, sometimes dark in color and sometimes light. Occasionally, it is dark red. I thought it was the start of my period, but three days later, it completely returned to yellow. It also has a bad odor. Is this a gynecological disease?Doctor's answer:
Abnormal white discharge with a bad odor is usually caused by a bacterial vaginal infection. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a detailed examination of the discharge to confirm what type of bacterial infection is causing the inflammation. Vaginal infections do not necessarily have to be transmitted through sexual contact; there are other methods of transmission as well. You can try taking oral antibiotics and using topical vaginal cleansing solutions. Drink more water, eat more fruits, and consume more vitamin C regularly to boost your immune system. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, especially pay attention to maintaining hygiene in the vaginal area. Wishing you good health!In addition, during the treatment of gynecological diseases, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. Patients must avoid excessive stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of gynecological diseases.
