Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I got my first period. I had a brown creamy discharge. Later the next month I had a yellow discharge. Is it normal to have a yellow discharge or is it something serious?

Kindly help.

Answered by Dr. Sunita Kothari

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It looks like you have a Candida infection, with a secondary infection. Take a tablet of Cepodem (Cefpodoxime) 200 mg twice a day for 10 days, a tablet of Sporlac DS (probiotics) once a day for 10 days, and apply Canesten (Clotrimazole) vaginal cream with applicator fully filled in the night.

I hope it helps.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
