What is the reason for the yellow-green vaginal discharge caused by itching in the lower body?

Trichomonas is generally contagious, and the main modes of transmission are: 1. Direct transmission through sexual intercourse. Most of the sexual partners of infected women have genital trichomoniasis, and Trichomonas is transmitted to women through sexual intercourse in the semen. Therefore, trichomoniasis is now listed as a sexually transmitted disease. ② Another way of transmission is indirect. For example, Trichomonas may already exist in the bathtub, tub, bath towel, swimming pool, toilet, etc. When taking a bath, swimming or sitting on the toilet, Trichomonas may enter the vagina and cause infection. ③Sometimes infection is caused by contact with contaminated clothing or contaminated instruments. Once infected, Trichomonas will grow and multiply and cause some symptoms. Only a small number of women (about 3% to 10%) have Trichomonas in the vagina without any inflammatory response and no symptoms.

The main symptoms of Trichomonas vaginitis are:

1. Increased leucorrhea, which is grayish yellow or milky white, thin, purulent secretion, foamy, and has a fishy or rat-like odor; sometimes the leucorrhea is mixed with a small amount of blood, so it is pink.

2. Most patients experience vulvar itching, a burning sensation in the vagina and vulva, and pain during sexual intercourse.

3. If the urinary tract is also infected with Trichomonas, there will be frequent urination, painful urination, and even blood in the urine. However, about 1/2 of the people have Trichomonas found in their urine but do not have any urinary tract symptoms.

Warm reminder from gynecologists: Trichomonas vaginitis is a common gynecological disease caused by Trichomonas vaginalis. Trichomonas can be transmitted directly to the woman through sexual intercourse because the same type of Trichomonas can often be found in the urethral and prostate secretions of the patient's husband. Trichomonas not only parasitizes in the vagina, but also in the lower urinary tract (urethra and paraurethral glands) and the cervical canal. Even carriers of Trichomonas may not show any clinical symptoms.

The above is an introduction to the cause of itchy lower body and yellow-green leucorrhea. After understanding it, we know that this is generally caused by Trichomonas vaginitis. If such symptoms occur, you must go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. In addition, you should also pay attention to maintaining good personal hygiene and change comfortable cotton underwear frequently.
