Im a 60 year old female, and Ive lost 35 lbs and look kinda yellow. Please help im so very tired of this.

Hello,
As per your case history of white and yellow discharge from the vagina, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid using soap or Dettol on that part.
2. Apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral fluconazole, itraconazole, and terbinafine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
