Hi, this is Seyeda. I am 6 months pregnant. I am experiencing white discharge with a foul odour from the vagina during intercourse. I had a similar problem before pregnancy, and my gynecologist had prescribed medication that resolved it. My question is, why is this problem recurring now, and is it likely to happen again in the future? Please advise.

White discharge with odour may indicate a vaginal infection. Recurrence is common in pregnancy due to hormonal changes. Follow up with your gynecologist for treatment. Antibacterial treatment will be given by doctor suitably.

Hi doctor my mother has to undergo cataract surgery. In her pre operative urine report her urine showed high pus cells and she received medication for it. After completing a one week course of medication she had her urine lab done again but her pus cells are still high along with high epithelial cells. Is this something very serious? I am attaching her two urine reports before and after her medication. The one marked with a pen is the first report and the one with no pen mark is the latest report.
