Why do women's private parts become dirtier the more they wash?

Leucorrhea is a discharge from women's vagina. Under normal circumstances, the amount of leucorrhea is not much, the color is transparent, and it has no odor and is not irritating. If the amount of vaginal discharge increases significantly, or the color, properties, or smell changes, it is considered abnormal. The occurrence of this symptom is an abnormal manifestation of many diseases. How to prevent and treat abnormal leucorrhea?

Prevention and treatment of abnormal leucorrhea

First of all, you should eat less spicy, greasy and cold foods, and eat more foods that nourish the spleen and kidneys and clear away heat and dampness, such as lotus seeds, jujube, yam, coix seed, winter melon seed, etc.

If the leucorrhea is thin and excessive due to spleen and kidney deficiency, you can choose lentils, ginkgo, broad beans, mung beans, cowpeas, black fungus, walnut meat, clams, turtle meat, celery, water chestnut, shepherd's purse, black chicken, pomegranate peel, cuttlefish bone, cockscomb, purslane, pomegranate, mandarin fish, red beans, etc. for diet therapy.

Prevention of abnormal leucorrhea

First of all, you should control your sexual intercourse and pay attention to hygiene during menstruation, pregnancy and postpartum period. The genitals should be kept clean at ordinary times and public baths should be avoided. Women with tinea pedis should use separate towels and basins for washing feet and vulva.

Leucorrhea is a mucous substance secreted from the female vagina. It is an odorless, non-irritating, translucent secretion.

The amount of vaginal discharge is related to age, menstrual cycle and sexual activity. Women of childbearing age have more vaginal discharge during each menstrual period, women during pregnancy have more vaginal discharge, and girls in love have more vaginal discharge. This indicates that the estrogen level in the body has increased, the cervix and vaginal wall have become congested, the exudate has increased, and the amount of leucorrhea has naturally increased.

The ovarian function of menopausal women declines, the level of estrogen secretion decreases, the reproductive organ tissue atrophies, and the leucorrhea secretion becomes scarce

It can be seen that normal leucorrhea is one of the information about whether the female reproductive system is healthy, and it is by no means unclean.

Strengthen the use of vulva and vaginal medication to build up your own defense function

Every time menstruation comes, the shedding of the endometrium and the outflow of menstrual blood can play a "flushing" role, driving away the invading pathogens; the regular peristalsis of the fallopian tubes toward the uterine cavity can also prevent the spread of pathogens. When the above-mentioned defense mechanisms are destroyed, or when exogenous pathogens repeatedly invade and exceed the body's defense capabilities, a series of inflammatory reactions will occur. At this time, the use of vulva and vaginal medication should be strengthened to build up one's own defense function.

If you use vaginal cleansing lotions repeatedly and in large quantities, some pathogens may be temporarily eliminated, but the normal ecological balance cannot be established.

Excessive washing also affects the normal physiological function of the reproductive tract, causing more vaginal discharge and even causing vulvar itching and nonspecific vaginitis.

Experts remind you: The purpose of cleaning private parts is to remove dirt and residual urine and feces to avoid contamination and disease. But don't wash too often in a day. Once a day is the best way. Hot water shower is preferred. Warm water is preferred. No potassium permanganate, salt, vinegar, etc. are needed in the water. Wash your hands before cleaning the vulva, and then clean from front to back to prevent infection.
