What Causes Persistent Vaginal Discharge?

Hello, Im female 42 yrs. im suffering from vaginal discharges continuosly since 1999. I used to visit doctors and they used to take vaginal swap to confirm that i have nothing,!!! But i still have these vaginal discharges. I remember once in 2000 i visited a doctor and when my swap came negative for all bacteria s and funguls etc, she reguested to have herpes blood test. I dont remember which type she did but my results with my husbunds showed antibodies. She gave us medicine without talking about any genitalies herpes. At that time i started reading about herpes and i became very scared. Then i remembered that I had one sore one my mouth that was very big and it was the first and last sore i had in my life. That sore i had maybe weeks before having that blood test done. I went back to the doctor and i was crying so she said that she did not say that we had gentalis herpes. I cannot remember what then she explained but i ignored her. I had three kids after that all normal deliveries with no problem. But im still having this vaginal discharges that annoying me. I wounder now, is this might be herpes?! I never had any breakout down on my vagina and i had only that one on my mouth 16 yrs back. Plz answer me. Thanks

Hello,

The symptoms are more consistent with infective causes like yeast or bacterial vaginosis.

Consult a gynecologist and plan for a vaginal swab to confirm the diagnosis. As of now, you can use clotrimazole lotion to cleanse your genitals.

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

Take care
