I have a fishy odor down there and when I went to the dr all I had was a yeast infection. Its been 2 weeks now and I still have the odor. I was told I have small fibroids so could that be the cause? If so, what can I do to get rid of the odor..overall?
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, As you are having fungal infection, which is causing all these symptoms like fishy odor and the white discharge. The fungus is the normal comedians of the genitals, which are kept under control by the helpful organisms present in the normal vaginal flora. Whenever there is change in environment in the genitals the helpful organisms are not able to maintain acidic PH in the vagina, and it may lead to its symptoms. As you are having these symptoms I would suggest you to follow1. Keep the good hygiene of the genitals2. Oral Antifungal Chat Doctor. 3. Topical antifungal creams.4. Course of antibiotics to prevent secondary bacterial infection. These measures will help to control the symptoms, and then you can think about the management of fibroid. Thank you.
