Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.The most common symptoms of vaginitis will be itching and white discharge.

In case of bacterial infection, the discharge will be yellowish or greenish and in case of fungal infection it will be curd like discharge.

It is quite simple to cure. You need to get the respective medicines depending on the origin of vaginitis like:

  • For bacterial cause you need antibacterial drugs.
  • And for fungal vaginitis you need antifungal drugs.

Hope this helps.If the problem persists, consult an obstetrician and gynaecologist online.
