Changes in vaginal discharge in Mumbai: When to see a Gynaecologist?

Vaginal Discharge: When to Seek Assessment

Vaginal discharge is a normal fluid that keeps the vagina clean and moist. It is usually clear or white, thick and sticky, slippery and wet, and does not have a strong or unpleasant smell. The amount can vary with pregnancy, sexual activity, birth control use, or ovulation.

Routine Assessment: Consult a general physician or gynaecologist if your vaginal discharge changes in colour, smell, or texture; if you produce more discharge than usual; if you experience itchiness or soreness; if you bleed between periods or after sex; or if you have pain when peeing or pelvic pain (pain between your tummy and thighs).

These changes might indicate an infection, and an individual clinician assessment is necessary for diagnosis.
