Why does vaginal discharge increase after exercise?

If it is a healthy woman, the amount of secretion is usually proportional to the level of estrogen in the body. It is common for women to have increased leucorrhea, and 80 to 90 percent of women have this condition. Most women experience increased vaginal discharge due to gynecological diseases such as vaginitis and cervicitis. What is the reason for increased vaginal discharge after exercise?

Why is there more vaginal discharge after exercise?

If there is a lot of leucorrhea after exercise, it may be that during the exercise process, due to the effect of force, female vaginal secretions are discharged. If it is not accompanied by symptoms such as vaginal odor and yellow leucorrhea, generally no treatment is required. If accompanied by abnormal color, vulvar itching, strong odor and other symptoms, it is considered to be caused by gynecological inflammation, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, vaginitis, cervicitis and endocrine disorders. In such cases, it is necessary to do a routine leucorrhea examination and a gynecological examination to find the cause and treat it with medication.

In addition to gynecological inflammation, there are also physiological reasons for female secretions. For example, before menstruation, changes in hormones in the body can cause excessive vaginal discharge. Another is bacterial infection. Some women use poor quality sanitary napkins or underwear, which are easy to cause bacteria. These bacteria can enter the body through the vagina and infect the body, and are also easy to cause excessive leucorrhea. In addition, some women use contraceptive rings for contraception, but because the body is overly sensitive, it is easy to have excessive vaginal discharge.

Here, I would like to remind female friends that they must pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, try to avoid wearing tight pants, and choose underwear that is pure cotton, breathable and soft. They should also pay attention to hygiene during the menstrual period and change sanitary napkins frequently.

What should I do if my vaginal discharge increases?

1. Increased brown vaginal discharge

This type of symptom is generally related to uterine cancer, such as cervical cancer, so you should go to the hospital for a physical examination immediately.

2. Fully transparent sticky secretions

If a woman is in the ovulation period or pregnancy period, it is normal to have transparent leucorrhea. If it is not within these two stages, it may be due to endometrial hyperplasia, which requires treatment with estrogen drugs.

3. Increased bloody leucorrhea

This type of symptom may be caused by the contraceptive ring in the uterus, or it may be due to diseases such as senile vaginitis, so you should go to the hospital for a physical examination.

4. Increase of leucorrhea

This type of symptom is manifested by secretions with an odor, a light green and thick surface, and may be related to uterine inflammation. Cervicitis, vaginitis, and metritis are common symptoms and require immediate outpatient treatment at a hospital.

5. Milky secretion

Most of the symptoms of a sudden increase in milk-like discharge are caused by candidal vaginitis.

Causes of increased vaginal discharge:

First, cervical erosion. Sexual intercourse or lacerations during childbirth can cause cervical erosion, resulting in leucorrhea with an unpleasant odor.

Second, pathogen infection. The sources of pathogens include beneficial bacteria that parasitize in the female vagina and foreign invading pathogens.

Third, foreign matter enters the male reproductive organs. If foreign objects such as gauze and sanitary napkin plugs appear in the female vagina, it will cause the leucorrhea to have an odor. Some women who are not suitable for the insertion of contraceptive rings will also have leucorrhea with an odor if they insert one.

Internal reasons are mainly reflected in the poor functioning of some organs of the human body or excessive pressure. For example, some patients with weak spleen and stomach are prone to diarrhea due to poor digestion and absorption, which causes the vagina to secrete excessive transparent watery secretions. Long-term work pressure and excessive communication can cause endocrine imbalance and affect secretion metabolism.
