What should I do if the discharge is foul-smelling during the last two days of my period?

In the last two days of menstruation, the foul smell of secretions may be caused by physiological factors or pathological factors such as vulvitis, vaginitis, etc. It can be improved by wearing loose clothes and using drugs.

1. Physiological factors:

If sanitary products are not replaced in time during menstruation, the local air permeability will be poor and odor will appear. Generally, no special treatment is required. Usually wearing loose clothing can help relieve symptoms.

2. Pathological factors:

1. Vulvitis:

It may be due to long-term use of antibiotics, wearing tight clothes, etc., which may cause bacteria to invade the local skin and cause local mucosal ulcers and burning symptoms. If not treated in time, it will also be accompanied by symptoms such as itching and odor. You can use erythromycin ointment, metronidazole tablets, clotrimazole ointment and other drugs for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

2. Vaginitis:

Taking into account reasons such as poor personal hygiene and decreased immunity, pathogens will enter the vagina, release inflammatory factors, increase secretions, and produce fishy odor and other symptoms. It is necessary to use amoxicillin capsules, fluconazole tablets, metronidazole tablets and other drugs for treatment according to the doctor's advice.

In addition to the above common diseases, it may also be caused by cervicitis, adnexitis, endometritis and other diseases. If the patient has other discomfort symptoms, he needs to go to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the condition.
