How to read the leucorrhea report

Routine examination of leucorrhea is a common gynecological examination method, which can make an accurate diagnosis of whether a woman's vagina has Trichomonas, fungal infection and the cleanliness of her leucorrhea. Therefore, many women conduct routine leucorrhea examinations to eliminate the confusion caused by secretions. However, when they go to the hospital for examination, they rarely understand the examination forms. So, how to understand the secretion test report?

1. Regarding the pH value on the test sheet, it is a test of the acidity and alkalinity of the vagina. When there is no infection in the vagina, the pH is generally 4 or 5. If there is a trichomoniasis infection or a fungal infection, the pH value will be around 5-6.

2. Cleanliness of leucorrhea. For women, the cleanliness of leucorrhea is an important data and must be clearly understood. Generally, the cleanliness of the vagina is divided into four levels. They are Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ respectively. When the test results are Ⅰ~Ⅱ, it means that the leucorrhea is normal. When the test result is Ⅲ~Ⅳ, it indicates Trichomonas vaginitis, which is an abnormal secretion and needs to be treated.

3. Data about bacteria, this is the test for fungi and Trichomonas. The number indicates that bacteria have been detected, but this number only means that your secretions contain this bacteria, and cannot indicate the degree of infection. Therefore, further testing is required to know the level of infection.

In short, if the routine leucorrhea examination is negative, it can basically be confirmed that it is normal leucorrhea, but if it is negative for streptococcus, it is not good and you need to pay attention to many aspects. As for the inspection report, as long as you keep these three pieces of data in mind and know them clearly, you will understand. That is: remember PH value as 4 or 5; remember cleanliness value as 1 to 2; there is no bacteria. These are normal. Otherwise, there is a problem, indicating the possibility of vaginitis, which requires regular inspection and treatment.
