Question : I am having white cottage discharge

Answered by Dr. Dr. Rakhi Tayal (1 hour later)

Brief Answer:
Can be a vaginal fungal infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.

A white cottage discharge vaginally can be related to a fungal infection. This can be associated with itching also. You can use a clotrimazole vaginal pessary (Candid) which is available over the counter. Do follow the instructions on the pack carefully.

Try to keep the area dry. In case the discharge persists then getting a vaginal swab culture will help.

Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow-up queries that you have.

Wishing you good health.

Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
