Recognizing Gynecologic Problems
Vaginal bleeding and discharge are a normal part of your menstrual cycle prior to menopause. If you notice anything different or unusual, consult your health care provider 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 kidney damage. Vaginal symptoms may also be a sign of more serious problems, such as cancers of the reproductive tract.
Recognizing symptoms early and seeing a health care provider right away increase the likelihood of successful treatment.
