A Most women with BV complain of a characteristic fishy odor. The discharge usually is profuse, thin, and has a white, gray, or milky color. Some women also may have mild irritation or pruritus.
B The discharge associated with candidiasis is thick, white, and lumpy and resem-bles cottage cheese.
C Trichomoniasis may be asymptomatic, but women commonly have a characte-ristic yellowish to greenish, frothy, mucopurulent, copious, and malodorous discharge.
D Women with gonorrhea are often asymptomatic. They may have a purulent en-docervical discharge, but discharge usually is minimal or absent.
