What is the reason for curd-like leucorrhea?

If your vaginal discharge is white and curd-like, you may be suffering from candidiasis.

It is also accompanied by severe itching, which will directly affect women's sleep and work. When the symptoms are mild, female patients cannot tolerate it and will scratch unconsciously.

Candidal vaginitis is also known as candidal vaginitis. It is mainly caused by Candida albicans infection. This bacteria normally lives in the vagina, and when the local environmental conditions change, it is easy to get sick and cause inflammation.
