How to get rid of excess discharge - #20027
I started having a lot of discharge since the 13th of November after having unprotected sex. At first it was yellow and had a rotten smell. I tried bathing with water mixed with bicarbonate of soda, I tried Canex V , I tried fruits like pineapple. Nothing helped. Now it doesn’t smell bad , but it’s still yellow and it’s a lot to the point i have had ti wear pads everyday from the 13th of November 2025 till date . It’s yellow on the pad ,but when I touch it , I see a creamy white color , and it’s not necessarily slimy , but it’s on the watery side .

Doctors’ responses
This isn’t normal.
Test:
Vaginal swab for microscopy & culture STI screening (Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Trichomonas)
These infections do not go away on their own and cannot be cured with over-the-counter creams if bacterial or STI-related.
Come back ASAP with the reports.
Hello,
Your discharge is not normal and strongly suggests infection, most likely an STI (chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomonas) or bacterial vaginosis, since it started after unprotected sex, was foul-smelling, yellow, and is still heavy after 2 months.
Home remedies and Canex V won’t cure this.
You need to see a physician / gynecologist / STI clinic for:
Vaginal swab + STI tests Possible HIV & syphilis screening Prescription antibiotics
Avoid sex until treated; partner must also be tested and treated.
I trust this helps Thank you
Hello dear I doubt probably it seems vaginal or chlamydia infection Iam recommending some tests Please get them done for confirmation of diagnosis Esr CBC Vaginal swab Culture PCR Urine analysis Rft Serum ferritin Please share the result with general physician medicine in person for better clarity Please donot take any medication without consulting the concerned physician Regards
Hello Unathi Thanks for sharing these details. Based on your history—persistent vaginal discharge starting after unprotected sex, initially yellow and foul-smelling, now yellow/creamy and watery but without odor, and lasting for several weeks—this suggests a possible ongoing vaginal infection.
Most Likely Causes - Bacterial Vaginosis (BV): Often causes yellow, watery discharge with a bad smell, but can persist with less odor. - Trichomoniasis: Can cause yellow, frothy, and sometimes foul-smelling discharge. - Other vaginal infections: Yeast infections usually cause thick, white, curdy discharge, but yours sounds more watery and yellow. - Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI): Given the timing after unprotected sex, an STI like chlamydia or gonorrhea is possible.
What You Should Do Next 1. See a Gynecologist: You need a proper examination and lab tests (vaginal swab, urine test) to identify the exact cause and get the right treatment. 2. Avoid Home Remedies: Bicarbonate of soda and fruits won’t treat infections and may irritate the area. 3. Avoid Self-Medication: Canex V is for yeast infections, but your symptoms don’t match a typical yeast infection. 4. Practice Safe Sex: Avoid further unprotected sex until you’re treated and cleared by a doctor.
