Question : hi,.
I am observing thick white vaginal discharge from couple of days, I had period on August 1st, my periods are mostly irregular. when I notice that discharge is when I sleep and wake up and go to pee I am observing it, quantity is not much. Is it normal else any infection. I don't have any sores near my Vagina. But due to my obesity I often feel sweating in my thighs and vaginal part and feel itching. I observed today and found no sores around it.So finding Vagina discharge only once a day is normal or else is it because of some infection. If yes is it treatable.

Brief Answer:
Fungal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

This appears to be fungal infection of the vagina.

I suggest you insert candid vaginal pessaries one every night for 6 nights vaginally before you sleep.

This will help reducing the infection and white discharge.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards
