What Symptoms Are Associated With Infectious Leukorrhea?

Infectious leukorrhea may have few noticeable symptoms at first, and different organisms can cause different symptoms. A yeast infection is recognizable by a characteristic thick, white, cottage cheese vaginal discharge, while trichomoniasis, another common infection, causes green, yellow or gray frothy discharge.

Other symptoms of infection may be an increasingly unpleasant odor, itching and swelling of the outer vagina and vulva. Soreness can occur with or without sexual activity. A woman may have two or three infections at a time.1’Vaginal Discharge.’ Cleveland Clinic. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/symptoms/4719-vaginal-discharge
