The call for greater focus on vaginal health matters because embarrassment can delay useful conversations. Dryness, soreness, itching, discharge, odour, bleeding or pain are all reasonable symptoms to raise with a healthcare professional.
Before a review, note when the change began, whether it varies with your cycle or sex, and any recent antibiotics, medicines or new products. Menopause stage and other health history may also be relevant.
Several conditions can cause similar symptoms, and not every change is hormonal or infectious. A sensitive assessment can help determine what may need checking and what next step fits the clinical context.
