Brief Answer:
Leukorhea

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.

The white discharge is called leukorhea and should be investigated with tests like pap smear. Thus I would suggest you to get this test done. This test is to be done yearly by all women. I would suggest that you visit a gynecologist for this test.

After getting the diagnosis appropriate treatment can be advised. Also if you can tell me more details about your symptoms and if you have any other symptoms I will be better able to help you.

Meanwhile, please take measures to increase your immunity like more of fruits ad vegetables, clean drinking water, condom during sexual intercourse, daily exercise for atleast 20 min a day.

Please let me know if I can assist you further.
