Patient's question:
Hello, recently I was diagnosed with vaginitis and prescribed some medication to be placed inside the vagina. The medication is white. However, when I first inserted it, my vagina felt very itchy. What could be the reason for this? Also, I haven't had my period for over 20 days now.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, it may be vaginitis, which is a group of conditions that cause external genital and vaginal symptoms such as itching, burning pain, irritation, and abnormal discharge. The clinical manifestations are often an increase in vaginal discharge, which may have an odor or a foul smell, and may be accompanied by itching or a burning sensation in the external genitalia. It is recommended that you seek medical attention for a gynecological examination and a routine vaginal discharge test to determine the type of vaginitis and provide symptomatic treatment. For such cases, you can undergo relevant examinations to determine the nature of the inflammation and then take measures to reduce the inflammation.
