Vaginitis suppository discharges red residue

Most women have experienced vaginitis. Once inflammation occurs, the first thing that appears is itching of the vagina. Discoloration and odor of leucorrhea are also obvious characteristics. Among the drugs for treating vaginitis, topical medications are more common, but what is the reason for the red residue that flows out of vaginitis suppositories? This is due to the massive shedding of the vaginal epithelium, and this is very normal, so women don't need to worry.

Vaginal mucosa refers to the mucus membrane layer secreted by the inner wall of the vagina to keep the inner wall surface moist and active. Because its surface is mostly sticky, it is called a mucous membrane. During the follicular phase, the vaginal mucosa is affected by estrogen, the epithelium thickens, and the epidermal cells keratinize; the vaginal epithelial cells are rich in glycogen (Note: the vaginal mucosal epithelium is a stratified squamous epithelium, also known as "stratified squamous epithelium"), which is broken down into lactic acid under the action of vaginal lactobacilli to maintain the acidic environment of the vagina; after ovulation, under the action of progesterone, the vaginal mucosal epithelium falls off in large quantities, and the keratinization phenomenon disappears.

Location

The vaginal wall is divided into three layers from outside to inside according to histology, namely the mucosal layer, the muscular layer and the adventitia. The vaginal mucosa is the outermost layer, which is the most superficial layer, equivalent to the outermost layer of the skin.

If you have sexual intercourse, it is possible that sexual intercourse may aggravate inflammation and cause bleeding. When local medications are used to treat vaginitis, vaginal damage may occur due to excessive dosage, improper use, or misuse of corrosive drugs. If the concentration of potassium permanganate solution used for vaginal flushing is too high or there are undissolved particles, the potassium hydroxide formed may corrode the vaginal mucosa and cause vaginal ulcers and bleeding. In recent years, the use of chlorhexidine to treat extensive vaginal ulcers caused by vaginal inflammation has been seen in many places. Vaginal bleeding is a common gynecological symptom. It is both a clinical manifestation of certain diseases and a precursor symptom of certain serious diseases. Therefore, it should be taken seriously. It is recommended to find out the cause in time and take necessary treatment measures.
