Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 23 year old female. I have been experiencing white discharge per vaginum since the past 10 to 15 days. It started before my periods but was fine during that time but even after my periods continued, it is still there. It is slightly thick, not foul smelling, there is no itching as such, just intermittent discharge throughout the day. I am not sexually active. I can feel episodes of the discharge happening. What can I do for it?

I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.

Vaginal discharge could be due to fungal or bacterial infection. Please follow the instructions below:

  1. Keep the area dry and clean.
  2. You should take antifungal and antibacterial treatment.
  3. Take healthy and nutritious diet.

Hope you found it useful, feel free to ask more information.

Thank you.
