Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What is the white, viscous substance during sex?Doctor's answer:
It is vaginal discharge. Vaginal discharge is a small amount of white, viscous liquid that exists in the normal vagina of women, mainly composed of exudate from the vaginal walls and a small amount of mucus secreted by the Bartholin's glands, cervix, and endometrial glands. Normal vaginal discharge is acidic, containing more vaginal bacteria and shed epithelial cells, with fewer white blood cells. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but also leads to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo a routine examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
