Q: 

Why do I have Likoria if I've never been sexually active?

My question is about likoria for an unmarried girl. I am 21 and it's been 7 years and I have taken so many medicines but no use. What is the best solution for this ? Do we have to change our diet ? I am not involved in any sexual activities. Neither have I touched a boy. Why this is happening?

Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern about persistent likoria.

Leukorrhea, which is the medical term for likoria, is a vaginal discharge. Normally, it is white and odorless. The amount can vary with a woman's menstrual cycle. There appears to be connection with estrogen levels and leukorrhea.

However, in many cases, leukorrhea is a sign of infection, especially when the discharge is yellow or green, has an offensive odor, and is accompanied by irritation, itching, pain, or tissue inflammation.

Anonymous, you mention that you have experienced likoria for seven years and have been treated with medications that have been ineffective.

Has your physician told you the reason for persistent likoria?

I think knowing the cause can help you find an effective treatment.

Regards,
Maryann
