Specializes in Infectious Disease

It's often difficult to diagnose the specific cause of vaginal discharge. Colored discharge suggests infection. Keep working with your doctor. Or an ObG who specializes in infectious diseases; there are such experts in most major metropolitan areas or academic medical centers. If at possible STD risk, get tested for gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas, and maybe Mycoplasma genitalium. Good luck.
