What to do if you have too much leucorrhea

Everyone's physical condition is different due to various reasons, and the same is true for women. Women who exercise regularly and have good health tend to have relatively fewer gynecological diseases; women who exercise little or no exercise and have poor health tend to have relatively more gynecological diseases; but this is also the case in most cases. Common female gynecological diseases include: irregular menstruation, breast lumps, breast hyperplasia, abnormal leucorrhea, etc. The following is a detailed introduction to excessive vaginal discharge in women.

In fact, women will have leucorrhea under normal circumstances, but not too much. The increase in vaginal discharge indicates that there is a problem in some aspect of a woman's body, reminding us to seek examination and treatment so as to maintain a healthy state of body. So, what should women do if they have too much vaginal discharge?

Leucorrhea is a sticky white liquid that flows out of the vagina of women. It is a mixture of secretions from the Bartholin's glands, cervical glands, endometrium, exudate from the vaginal mucosa, and desquamated vaginal epithelial cells. Leucorrhea contains lactobacillus, lysozyme and antibodies, so it has the effect of inhibiting bacterial growth. During sexual intercourse, the amount of leucorrhea will increase, which will lubricate the vagina and facilitate sexual intercourse. Generally, the amount of leucorrhea increases during the middle of the menstrual period and becomes thin and transparent; after ovulation, the leucorrhea becomes thick, turbid and less in quantity. There is an increase in leucorrhea before menstruation and during pregnancy. Non-primate mammals appear during estrus.

However, if the amount of vaginal discharge increases, there is an odor, or local itching, treatment is required. So, what should I do if I have too much vaginal discharge?
