Women generally have some various forms of discharge from their private parts. While some of these discharges may be useful to the body, some may indicate evidence of diseases. As such, any excessive form of discharge should be investigated. As has always been recommended in this column, any unusual vaginal discharge should be sent for a laboratory investigation in order to confirm the causes and possible treatment.
