Patient's question:
I just had my first sexual experience a month ago, and recently my discharge has increased and turned yellow, with a sensation of itching. In mid-last month, I took the emergency contraceptive pill 48 hours after intercourse. I don't know if it's related to this. I want to know what to do about increased discharge after having my first sexual experience for a month.Doctor's answer:
It may be caused by cervicitis. Delaying treatment for cervicitis not only affects sexual life but may also impact fertility and lead to deeper inflammation. First, actively seek treatment by taking traditional Chinese medicine. Generally, it takes 3-4 courses of treatment, with 2-3 courses for milder conditions, with each course lasting 14 days. It can reduce inflammation and lower the body's immunity. Regular check-ups are recommended, along with attention to nutrition, eliminating worries, boosting treatment confidence, enhancing nutrition, exercising, balancing work and rest, and reducing the body's resistance. During menstruation, sexual intercourse must be strictly prohibited. Pay attention to hygiene during the menstrual period and daily life. Clothes and underwear should be washed and changed frequently, and underwear should be sterilized.
