What Causes Yellowish White Discharge From Vagina?

worried
I have a somewhat major concern. I'm not experiencing any pain or itching, but I have a yellowish to white discharge from my vagina. There is a smell but its hard to describe, its not a fishy smell, so I'm not sure. I'm not on any medications and I haven't been sexually active in a few weeks, but the symptoms have been going on for about 2 weeks now.

Hi,

It could be due to vaginitis or a cervical infection. You can use V-wash. Use some cotton underwear. Change your old garments. If it is not subsiding then take a smear test. You should be started on vaginal suppositories. It could be due to UTI also. Drink lot of water. Deworming will also help you relieve these symptoms.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
