There is abnormality in the leucorrhea, it has a fishy smell and the amount has increased. Because this had never happened before, she didn't know what was going on. So, why does the leucorrhea have a fishy smell and increase in amount? Experts from Zhumadian Liren Gynecology Hospital have an answer to this. Experts from Zhumadian Liren Gynecological Hospital said that normal leucorrhea of ​​women is transparent or milky white, with no special smell. If the nature changes, it may be caused by gynecological diseases. So, gynecologists say that if women find that their vagina has a fishy odor and is often accompanied by an increase in leucorrhea, they may consider the possibility of vaginitis, which is more common in symptoms of bacterial vaginitis. It is recommended to do routine tests of vaginal secretions and leucorrhea as early as possible. First, it is necessary to clarify what kind of bacterial infection is caused, and then carry out symptomatic treatment.

Symptoms of bacterial vaginitis in women: After a woman suffers from bacterial vaginitis, her vaginal discharge increases and has a fishy odor. The odor worsens during or after sexual intercourse. This is because the ammonia content in the vaginal discharge increases. Increased vaginal discharge is often thin and homogeneous or thin and pasty, and is off-white, off-yellow or milky yellow with a special fishy odor. Since alkaline prostatic fluid can cause the release of amines, the odor may worsen during or after sexual intercourse. The vaginal pH increases during menstruation, so the odor may also worsen during or after menstruation. Experts from Wuxi Women's Hospital kindly remind you that if you have the above symptoms, you are very likely to suffer from bacterial vaginosis. If a woman suffers from bacterial vaginosis and the pathogens grow in large numbers, they can invade the surrounding tissues, which can cause urogenital tract infection, pelvic inflammatory disease, nephritis and sepsis in women. Therefore, if the leucorrhea has a fishy smell, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to check the specific cause and receive timely treatment.
