Occasionally bloody vaginal discharge

Leucorrhea is one of the more normal physiological phenomena of women and is also a normal metabolic activity of the female reproductive system. Of course, if the leucorrhea is normal, then the female body is healthy. However, if there are abnormalities in the leucorrhea, it means that there are certain diseases in the female body, which is most likely a gynecological problem. Next, I will introduce to you some relevant knowledge about bloody leucorrhea in women!

1. Clinical manifestations

It is generally manifested as blood mixed in the leucorrhea, with the amount of blood varying.

1. Cervical polyps: Cervical polyps are a manifestation of chronic cervicitis. The main symptoms are yellow leucorrhea, odorous leucorrhea, bloody leucorrhea, etc.

2. Acute vaginitis: The main symptoms are increased leucorrhea, which is yellow or purulent and has a foul odor. When the infection is severe, vaginal bleeding may occur.

3. Severe cervicitis: The main symptoms are increased vaginal discharge, which is yellow, sticky and smelly, accompanied by vulvar itching, bleeding during sexual intercourse, lumbar pain, dysmenorrhea, etc.

4. Senile vaginitis: Clinical manifestations include increased vaginal discharge in a light yellow color, and in severe cases, bloody and purulent leucorrhea.

5. Cervical cancer: vaginal bleeding or bloody vaginal discharge after sexual intercourse.

6. Endometrial cancer: Clinical manifestations include irregular bleeding, with the amount of bleeding varying from time to time. Premenopausal women may have heavy menstrual flow and prolonged duration, while postmenopausal women may experience postmenopausal bleeding.

7. Fallopian tube cancer: Because the tumor stimulates the fallopian tube epithelium to exude fluid and the diseased tissue to necrosis, the leucorrhea is intermittent, red liquid, and intermittently flows out of the vagina.

8. Vaginal cancer and uterine cancer: The "leucorrhea" secreted is mostly characterized by a large amount of leucorrhea, which is like rice washing water, turbid and has a foul odor. Sometimes it is mixed with blood and is light pink in color and in large amounts.

2. Inspection

1. Clue cell test: It is a method to check bacterial vaginosis.

2. pH value check: The normal female vagina is slightly acidic, which can prevent the reproduction of pathogenic bacteria. Once a woman has a bacterial infection, her pH level will increase.

3. Amine test: Amine test is performed on women's leucorrhea. If the reaction is positive, bacterial vaginosis can be diagnosed.

4. Fungal and Trichomonas examination: If there is a "+" on the examination sheet, it indicates that the patient has been infected with Trichomonas or fungi.

5. Vaginal cleanliness examination: Vaginal cleanliness examination is generally divided into four degrees. Grades Ⅰ~Ⅱ are normal, and grades Ⅲ~Ⅳ are abnormal leucorrhea.

3. Prevention

1. Understand and master menstrual physiology and hygiene knowledge, and pay attention to menstrual health care and hygiene.

2. Avoid excessive fatigue during bleeding and get more rest; keep the area clean to prevent infection; apply hot compresses to the abdomen when abdominal pain is severe; and keep your emotions stable. Strengthen physical exercise on a regular basis to improve your physical fitness.

3. Enhance resistance: Keep exercising, strengthen your physical fitness and improve your resistance to germs, maintain good sleep, eat a reasonable diet and eat more vitamin-rich foods.

4. Choose cotton underwear: When choosing underwear, try to choose cotton underwear and avoid wearing nylon underwear, because cotton underwear can keep the genitals dry and ventilated.

5. Avoid frequent sexual intercourse: Do not have frequent sexual intercourse, because frequent sexual intercourse may increase the chance of bacterial infection. Especially during menstruation, pregnancy and postpartum period, sexual intercourse should be prohibited. You should keep your genitals clean at ordinary times, avoid taking public baths, and have special hygiene products.
