Patient's question:
Female, 24 years old. Has a history of sexual activity, but infrequent. Previously in good health. Over the past 3 months, she has noticed her vaginal discharge gradually turning into a white, curd-like consistency, often appearing yellow-green on her underwear, without itching. Her last menstrual period was on October 31, and today is the third day after her period. At the West China Hospital, after a routine and thorough examination, she had some minor tearing and experienced abdominal pain for a short while. Her cervix showed mild erosion, and her vagina was congested. A routine vaginal discharge test revealed 2+ Gram-positive bacilli. The doctor prescribed Longyi and Compound Huangbai liquid, but she hasn’t started using them yet?Doctor's answer:
In your case, there may be a possibility of vaginitis. It is recommended that you get an early vaginal discharge and leukorrhea routine test. This condition is generally caused by bacterial infection, so it is necessary to identify the specific type of bacteria before starting symptomatic treatment. It is advised to maintain good hygiene of the vaginal area to prevent infection and pay attention to a balanced diet. Avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods. Patients with abnormal leukorrhea can use folk remedies as supplementary treatment while seeking formal medical treatment. It is important to avoid extreme hunger or overeating in daily diet and never overindulge in food consumption.
