What to do if the leucorrhea has a fishy smell

Leucorrhea is a secretion from the female reproductive system. For women, as long as the leucorrhea is transparent and odorless, it is relatively normal and there is no need to worry too much. However, there are also many women who have the problem of having a fishy odor in their leucorrhea, which most likely indicates that they have health problems such as gynecological inflammation. Next, I will introduce to you some relevant knowledge about women’s leucorrhea with odor!

1. What to do if the leucorrhea has a strong odor

If the abnormal leucorrhea is caused by bacterial infection, it is actually gynecological inflammation. Although gynecological inflammation is not a terrible disease, we are still very resistant to it.

If the leucorrhea has a strong odor, that is, it has a fishy or even foul odor, you can only take active treatment and strive for early recovery. In fact, vaginal discharge with an odor may also occur during pregnancy. Expectant mothers should not panic and should take timely treatment to ensure the safety of the fetus.

If you go to the hospital for a check-up, they will generally observe the amount, color, shape, and smell of the leucorrhea to determine whether it is inflammation. After the diagnosis is confirmed, appropriate treatment measures will be taken according to the cause. During the treatment, you should ensure that your vagina is clean and dry, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and stay in a good mood.

2. Precautions for leucorrhea with odor

1. Use some mild-formulated toiletries. The formulas of toiletries for pregnant women are relatively mild. Do not use strong alkaline toiletries to rinse the vagina, as this will destroy the acidic environment of the vagina.

2. Choose soft, loose underwear, preferably cotton underwear. Avoid tight pants.

3. Keep the vulva area clean and dry, wear jeans less often, and try not to let your pants rub against your vulva.

4. During sex, you should pay attention to the man wearing a condom or taking a shower before sex to ensure clean love.

6. Do not use antibiotics in large quantities. I believe everyone has heard about the side effects of antibiotics, which can cause great irritation to the vagina.

7. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits and strengthen exercise.

3. What medicine is good for vaginal discharge with odor?

In fact, taking medicine without authorization is blind and dangerous. Only by prescribing the right medicine can you find the best solution and cure the leucorrhea odor as soon as possible. So if your leucorrhea has an odor, you should see a doctor and don’t take any medicine on your own. This is unscientific and will delay the best treatment time. Everyone should be aware of this.

Although taking medicine by yourself is a very stupid method, it is actually quite troublesome for some office workers to go to the hospital for treatment. The leucorrhea odor caused by bacterial infection cannot be cured in a day or two. Everyone should be mentally prepared and stay calm and don't panic.
