Know How Our Doctor Helped a Woman Who Had Yellowish Vaginal Discharge After Sex

A woman who had been dealing with yellowish vaginal discharge for the past three weeks consulted a Gynecologist on iCliniq and said that she started having the discharge a week after she had sex. She mentioned that odor did not accompany it, and it did not itch or burn when she passed stools or urine. She also said that her urine was very cloudy, and she often got minor cramps. The patient was unsure if it could be a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted disease, so she reached out for further help.

Our doctor went through the query and the attached images and asked the patient if she had experienced a similar problem before. He also wanted to know if she was using barrier contraception or other contraceptives or had unprotected sex. The doctor asked about her period history and if she had intercourse after that and experienced any pain. He also told the patient that this could be Chlamydia and asked her to get tested for it. The doctor asked her not to panic as there was no associated itching or burning sensation with the yellowish discharge, and so he suggested mild antibiotics.

After a few days, the patient reverted, saying that she used protection at the time of intercourse and had never been on birth control pills. She also added that she was not sexually active after that. She explained that her period cycle was irregular and that she would get her periods consistently and then not for months. She also said that she tested negative for Chlamydia.

The doctor went through the query and asked if she still had any discharge or if it had reduced or still the same. He also asked whether it was associated with any bleeding or not.

The patient reverted, saying that she still had yellowish discharge and the flow had reduced now. She also mentioned that there was no associated bleeding, but the urine was cloudy.

The doctor went through the query and said that it could be a mixed vaginal infection as there are no associated symptoms. He suggested taking vaginal pessary and probiotics for five days.

The patient felt relieved after our doctor's explanation, and she thanked our doctor for making her understand the problem with detailed explanations. She also said that she felt so much better now.
