Patient's question:
The leukorrhea is yellowish-green, with external genital itching and no odor. The results of the routine leukorrhea examination showed: vaginal bacteria, white blood cells, and IV cleanliness, with other findings normal. What should I do about yellowish-green leukorrhea and external genital itching?Doctor's answer:
IV degree: No vaginal lactobacilli, only a few squamous epithelial cells, with a large number of white blood cells and miscellaneous bacteria. The presence suggests relatively severe vaginal inflammation, such as candidal vaginitis or trichomoniasis. Normal vaginal discharge should be milky white or colorless and translucent, with a faint or no odor. Its volume and consistency are influenced by the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body, exhibiting cyclical variations in thickness and texture throughout the menstrual cycle. If the vaginal discharge increases without reason or is accompanied by changes in color, texture, or odor, it is important to be vigilant. It is not terrible to have vulvar itching; patients should believe in their ability to overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and appropriate treatment is administered, the chances of alleviating the condition and undergoing treatment are very high.
