Patient's question:
Usually, I don't pay much attention to personal hygiene, and my periods also come irregularly. Sometimes I only change my underwear every four or five days, and gradually, my discharge has become more and more. Now, my discharge has already started to be abnormal. After sniffing it, I noticed an odor, and my external genital area has also started to feel a bit itchy. Could it be some kind of gynecological disease?Doctor's answer:
Abnormal white discharge is related to sexual activity. If there is no sexual activity, it is likely due to a lack of attention to maintaining the cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia. The external genitalia are naturally a moist environment. If the immune system is low, it can easily lead to bacterial growth. Therefore, a thorough examination is needed to determine the specific type of vaginitis for targeted treatment. Options include using a liquid for sitz baths, vaginal medication, and oral medication simultaneously.
