White Discharge: What’s Normal and When to Worry?

White discharge from the vagina has become a common problem among women these days. It can be due to hormonal changes, infections, or other health issues.

 

4 simple Ways to Get Rid of white discharge

  1. Wear slightly loose cotton underwear. Wearing tight underwear can trap heat and moisture in the body, which can cause bacteria and yeast to grow in the vagina, worsening the problem of white discharge. Cotton fabric helps keep the area around the vagina dry and helps in air circulation.
  2. Maintain hygiene. Wash your vaginal area with water every day. Avoid using any soaps, deodorants, or sprays inside the vagina, as the chemicals in soaps can irritate the vagina and cause white discharge.
  3. Use vaginal creams/gels that contain curcumin or aloe vera. The compound curcumin found in turmeric as well as aloe vera has the anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties that help fight infections that can cause white discharge.
  4. Always use a condom during sex. Condoms protect against STIs, or sexually transmitted infections, which can cause white discharge. Regular screening for sexually transmitted infections can also help prevent white discharge.

Follow these simple tips to get rid of your white discharge problem.
