What is the reason for white and yellow viscous discharge?

Patient's question:

Age
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: It has been about 10 days since the white discharge has been yellow and thick. I used a box of Huang Bai Dai Jing, but the effect is not obvious. Please ask if I should check it?
Duration of this illness: About 10 days
Current general condition: Yellow and thick white discharge

Doctor's answer:

It is possible that it is caused by gynecological inflammation. Under normal circumstances, the vagina harbors many bacteria, but due to the formation of a delicate ecological balance between the vagina and these bacteria, it does not cause vulvar inflammation in normal conditions. However, if the ecological balance between the vagina and bacteria is disrupted, or if foreign bacteria and microorganisms multiply excessively, it can lead to varying degrees of inflammation. I recommend you go to the hospital for a check-up and seek treatment after confirming the diagnosis.
