Leucorrhea is thick and milky white

Nowadays, when gynecological diseases are prevalent, women pay more and more attention to their reproductive health. Discharge is a symptom of female reproductive health that is relatively easy to identify, so women can also easily observe changes in their own discharge. However, the symptoms of changes in discharge vary. Sometimes there are subtle changes, such as why leucorrhea is white and thick. Many women have been unable to tell what such changes in discharge mean. Therefore, let us understand why leucorrhea is thick, milky white and creamy.

1. Whether the secretion is healthy is a signal that there is something wrong with a woman's private parts. If a woman's leucorrhea is abnormal, it means that her private parts are definitely diseased. Symptoms of abnormal leucorrhea in women include blood in leucorrhea. The symptoms of blood in leucorrhea in women are very serious. Abnormal leucorrhea in women with blood in leucorrhea may be a sign of malignant tumor. If a woman's secretions have a strong odor, she may have candidal vaginitis.

2. Large quantity. The color is mostly transparent and water-like, but the amount is so large that the underwear is often wet. Apart from that, there are no other abnormal expressions. Such discharge is abnormal and may be related to chronic vaginitis and cervical erosion. Further examination in the hospital is required for diagnosis.

3. Milky white mucous secretion. Although it looks the same as normal leucorrhea, the amount is increased and it is a slightly sticky white mucus. This type of discharge is common after the use of drugs containing estrogen or when the pelvic cavity is congested. It is caused by increased secretion of the cervical gland duct and vaginal mucosa and generally does not require special treatment.

4. Tofu-like leucorrhea discharge. It is a symptom unique to candidal vaginitis, which is usually accompanied by severe itching in the private parts. The private parts and vaginal walls are often covered with a layer of white film-like substance, which is not easy to wipe off. If it is wiped off, the swollen mucosal surface will be exposed, which is easy to be infected by fungi, and is often accompanied by vulvar itching and burning pain. Especially diabetics or pregnant women should remember this, because pregnant women and diabetics have poor physical constitution and decreased immunity, which makes them prone to fungal infections.

5. Leucorrhea with peculiar smell and foamy appearance. The main symptom is excessive vaginal discharge, which is milky white or light green and sticky with a fishy smell. Frothy leucorrhea is the main feature of candidal vaginitis. In addition, there may be a burning sensation in the vagina, pain, and pain during sexual intercourse. Scratching can easily lead to vulvitis, local hematoma, and swelling.

In fact, the influencing factors of female genital health are not only caused by diseases, but also include bad living habits, such as staying up late, eating spicy food, unclean sex life and so on. Therefore, simply observing the secretions and then receiving treatment immediately is not the best solution. Instead, we should start from the details of daily life and take preventive measures to protect reproductive health to the greatest extent.
