Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I have read your query & I understand your concerns.

Based what symptoms you are suggesting it seems to be simple infection which could possibly go away soon.

The pink colour discharge is the collected menstrual blood from your recently completed periods. This will also come down in 3 days.

If the discharge remains or foul smell does not go away, I advice you to get examined by a gynecologist who will take the sample of dischage and send it for examination (culture) & advice you the medication accordingly.

I hope I answered your query. I will be available for any followup queries you have.

Regards,
