What can cause light bleeding during menstruation?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My period was due yesterday, and yesterday morning, I had light bleeding, which I confirmed as my period. However, since yesterday evening, there has been no blood, and up until now, I have only had a white, smelly discharge with no blood, even though it is the second day. I am confused about this. Could you please help me with this?
Please help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I read your query and understood your concern.
Regarding your symptoms, I believe you have developed oligomenorrhea, which is a condition characterized by small menstrual flow due to hormonal imbalance. This may be caused by a vaginal infection from the white discharge.
I suggest you undergo a hormone profile test, along with a vaginal and endocervical swab test, and let me know the results. Additionally, also take the following medications:
-
Two tablets of Co-Amoxiclav 625 mg (Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid) orally twice a day for two weeks.
-
Two tablets of Metronidazole 400 mg orally three times a day for two weeks.
-
A tablet of Medroxyprogesterone 10 mg once a day for one month..
Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.
Thank you.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
