Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower abdomen, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Could you please tell me the symptoms and treatments for bacterial vaginosis?Doctor's answer:
Bacterial vaginosis primarily manifests as a recurring increase in significant discharge, appearing greenish, with symptoms of itching and odor. A careful examination of vaginal discharge typically indicates BV positivity. After diagnosis, active antibiotic treatment is necessary, which can be administered orally or vaginally. It is important to pay attention to menstrual and sexual hygiene, maintain a light diet, and avoid excessive use of cleaning solutions to wash the vagina to prevent vaginal flora imbalance.
