Which specialist treats it? The OB-GYN is the one who evaluates the changes in discharge and provides guidance about their origin.

When to seek care? If you notice persistent changes in vaginal discharge or odor, the advisable thing is to discuss it with a professional, who will be able to distinguish it from other causes through an appropriate evaluation.
