Specializes in Psychiatry

White d/c: Symptoms of a yeast infection may include: burning, redness & itching of the vulva; burning with urination & vaginal intercourse & a clumpy, white, vaginal discharge with no odor. Sometimes the discharge isn’t apparent. If you have a brown discharge please see evaluation from your physician for an accurate diagnosis. Take care.
