Patient's question:
My mom is 46 years old this year. She had a uterine fibroid removal surgery last year. In the past two months, she has been constantly discharging yellowish fluid. She went to the hospital for a check-up, but there were no results. Could this be a symptom of menopause? She has taken gynecological anti-inflammatory medication, but it hasn't been effective. What should she do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the description, you should have symptoms of vaginitis. Before sexual activity, both partners should clean their genital organs to prevent bacteria from the vulva and penis from entering the vagina, which could lead to inflammation. During menstruation, the immune system is weakened, making it easier to get infected. It is recommended to avoid sexual activity during menstruation, take a secretion test to determine the cause, and receive targeted treatment.
