Dr. Gandhi understands normal and abnormal vaginal discharge and can assist patients who are concerned with changes in their body's functions. When a discharge occurs, it is not always a sign of a serious problem. The body naturally flushes out the vaginal area and discharge that is white or clear is perfectly normal and part of a woman's menstrual cycle. It may increase during pregnancy, times of emotional stress, sexual excitement, breastfeeding, and when hormonal medications are taken. However, when the discharge changes and other symptoms such as discomfort and odor are present, a visit to Partners in Pelvic Health North Shore Urogynecology is appropriate.
Contact Dr. Gandhi of Partners in Pelvic Health North Shore Urogynecology today to schedule an appointment and share your concerns about your pelvic health. Your health care provider may suggest that further testing be completed to confirm a diagnosis of a more serious concern for effective treatment to reduce discomfort and unusual vaginal discharge.
