When you are five months pregnant, what is the situation with itching in the vagina?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello. I am now six months and twenty days pregnant. Since the fifth month, I have been experiencing itching in the vaginal area, followed by yellow-green, lumpy discharge... It seems there are small bumps on the outer and inner labia, and there is also a small bump near the vaginal opening on the inner labia. Sometimes the inner labia itch intensely, making it hard to sit or stand still...
I don’t know what this could be or what I should do. Please reply as soon as possible.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your current condition falls into the mid-stage of pregnancy. This period is relatively stable during pregnancy. Currently, some fungal infections are not a major issue and will not affect your baby's normal growth and development.
It is recommended that you follow your doctor's advice and continue to use baking soda to clean the external genital area. Additionally, you can use Baofukang suppositories under the guidance of a doctor for local vaginal treatment. For now, avoid spicy foods in your diet, and wearing breathable cotton underwear can help improve the condition.
