Patient's question:
These days, my external genital area has been particularly itchy, and my discharge has increased, becoming very thick with a strong odor. Yesterday, when I had sex with my boyfriend, I felt pain in my vagina, and today I also experienced some pain while urinating. I suspect I might have a vaginal infection. Vaginal infection, external genital itching, abnormal discharge—what should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello! If you have vaginitis, you may also experience the symptoms you described, such as vaginal pain during intercourse, increased vaginal discharge, odor, and external itching. These are some of the most common clinical manifestations of vaginitis. If it's convenient for you, it is recommended that you first have a routine vaginal discharge test at the hospital. If vaginitis is confirmed, it is important to identify the type of vaginitis and then use medication accordingly.
