Yellowing of women's underwear may be caused by inflammation of the vaginal mucosa, which often leads to yellow vaginal discharge that then stains the underwear. In addition, chronic cervicitis can also cause the discharge to become yellow and thick. It is recommended that women undergo a gynecological examination annually to check for abnormalities in the cervix and vagina, evaluate the pelvic region, screen for tumors, and rule out cervical cancer.
