Is Vaginal Bleeding Common Symptom With Vaginal Thrush?
Question: I have vaginal thrush, but I have blood with my discharge. is this normal?
Brief Answer:
It is not a very common symptom with vaginal thrush.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Generally vaginal thrush is characterized by itching, rawness, pain, whitish flaky curd like discharge and vaginal discomfort.
Bleeding is not a very common symptom.
If you are using vaginal medications, you might have some amount of brownish discharge / spotting, as the vaginal medication dissolves and works.
Can you elaborate on how heavy and what kind of bleeding it is ?
And also, when was your last period ?
I hope thrush was diagnosed by a doctor and you are not self medicating presumptively ?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care.
