Hello,

Yellow discharge associated with irritation & itching is due to yeast infection. No, no such side effects are known. You are suggested to take care of your hygiene.Wear cotton clothes. Keep your genital area clean & dry. Avoid sex for a couple of days. You can take a course of oral fluconazole & apply clotrimazole or miconazole ointment in the affected area.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
