Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Doctor, hello: I used to read in newspapers that it's important to frequently wash the vagina or place medication. I tried using effervescent vaginal tablets, but shortly after, my vagina started itching. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they diagnosed it as vaginitis, and the itching was resolved with medication. During my physical examination two years ago, cervical erosion was detected, which was also treated with medication. However, recently, my vagina is still itchy, and there is a significant amount of discharge with a fishy odor. After two or three days without washing, white substances appear in the labia majora, resembling powder sprinkled on them. I don't know what the cause is. Could you please tell me what this condition is?Duration of the current illness: Two to three months
