Patient's question:
50 years old, menopausal for nearly a year, taking soy isoflavones for a month, suddenly increased vaginal discharge, yellow in color, odorless. Question: Is this normal? Is it a sign of a disease?Doctor's answer:
??????Hello! Normal leukorrhea should be milky white or colorless and transparent, slightly fishy or odorless. Its secretion amount and texture are influenced by the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body, exhibiting cyclical changes in quantity (more or less) and consistency (thinner or thicker) throughout the menstrual cycle. If leukorrhea increases without any reason or is accompanied by changes in color, texture, or odor, you should be alert. In general, abnormal leukorrhea is often caused by inflammation. It is recommended that you undergo further examination to confirm the diagnosis and receive symptomatic treatment.
