Hello, yellowing and foul-smelling underwear may be caused by conditions such as vaginitis, cervicitis, cervical erosion, endometritis, or cervical cancer. You should be admitted to the hospital for routine vaginal discharge testing and cervical tissue biopsy. If diagnosed with candidal (fungal) vaginitis, you should be hospitalized and follow your physician’s instructions to use clotrimazole vaginal suppositories for intravaginal treatment. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
