Vaginal bleeding and discharge are a normal part of your menstrual cycle prior to menopause. However, if you notice anything different or unusual, consult your physician before attempting to treat the problem yourself.

Symptoms may result from mild infections that are easy to treat. But, if they are not treated properly, they can lead to more serious conditions, including infertility or kidney damage. Vaginal symptoms may also be a sign of more serious problems, from sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) to cancers of the reproductive tract.

Gynecological symptoms may resemble other medical conditions or urological problems. Consult if you have any of the following symptoms -

👉Bleeding between periods.

👉Frequent and urgent need to urinate, or a burning sensation during urination.
