Patient's question:
Three nights ago, I had some itching in my private area. After that, when I woke up, I found brownish fluid leaking from my vagina. It's still there now. My period has been over for almost 20 days. Just before it ended, I had sex with my boyfriend. Now my private area is a bit itchy, but I don't know if it's because I used sanitary pads, so I'm a bit itchy. Please help me, kind doctors or anyone who can tell me what the problem is. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
It may be caused by sexual activity during menstruation. You can take some anti-inflammatory medication or use a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for external washing.The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's lives but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for an ultrasound examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
