What should I do if the vaginal discharge has an odor?

Generally speaking, most of the ectopic secretions in the female vagina are discharged through leucorrhea. Generally, leucorrhea has a slight fishy smell. Of course, depending on the physical condition, most people's leucorrhea does not have a fishy smell. Normal leucorrhea has many benefits for women's health, because leucorrhea has the function of purifying the female vagina. However, if there is an odor in the secretions, it is a good sign. So what should you do if the vaginal discharge has an odor?

What to do if vaginal discharge has an odor:

1. Pay attention to personal hygiene

Wash the vulva with warm water every day, wash underwear separately, sterilize them all, expose them to the sun after washing, and avoid sexual intercourse during this period. In addition, try to wear ventilated cotton underwear, keep dry, and eat less irritating food.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine can be used for treatment

Patients with spleen deficiency have white leucorrhea without odor, but they will experience chest tightness, fatigue, loss of appetite, loose watery stools, and white tongue coating. At this time, you should take some Chinese medicine to strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness. You can take Yudai Pills twice a day, 15 grams each time.

3. Diet therapy

Take 200 grams of fresh purslane and 2 raw eggs, chop the purslane and filter the juice, remove the egg yolks, mix the egg whites with the purslane juice, and take it with boiled water, once a day. However, this method has a limitation that it is only suitable for leucorrhea odor and excessive leucorrhea caused by mold.

If the condition is serious, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to conduct relevant routine leucorrhea examinations, and receive correct treatment under the guidance of a doctor after the condition is clarified. Avoid taking medication blindly, because the medications used to treat odors caused by different causes are different. Blind use of medication may cause dysbiosis and aggravate the condition.
