Increased vaginal discharge and a slightly sour odor during pregnancy is it normal?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially around my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Is it normal for vaginal discharge to increase and have a slightly sour smell during pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be bacterial or fungal vaginitis. You can use the decoction of Sophora flavescens or Berberis vulgaris to rinse and treat it, which can be somewhat effective. Both Sophora flavescens and Berberis vulgaris have anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties, but the latter should not be taken internally. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects the patient's body but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to go to the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal examination, identify the cause, and then receive targeted treatment. In daily life, you should drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
