Why is the leucorrhea yellowish in color?

When female friends have some gynecological inflammation in their bodies, the color of their leucorrhea will also become abnormal. When the leucorrhea is found to be khaki, it is likely caused by some gynecological diseases. It is best to go to the hospital for a routine leucorrhea examination in time, and then treat it according to the specific cause. Let us learn about some specific reasons why female friends' leucorrhea is khaki.

If the leucorrhea is yellow, sticky or purulent, it is likely to be chronic cervicitis. The most common manifestations are cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, cervical polyps, etc. Most cases of cervicitis are caused by the invasion of pathogens after cervical injury, such as multiple abortions, childbirth, or other surgical sequelae. It is worth noting that patients with chronic cervicitis may not only suffer from infertility, but their chance of cancer is 7 times higher than that of normal women.

When you suffer from "leucorrhea", you cannot simply consider vaginal diseases. In addition to vaginitis, other diseases such as cervicitis, pelvic inflammation, cervical cancer, uterine fibroids, uterine adenocarcinoma, vaginal foreign bodies, etc. can all cause different types of "leucorrhea". However, from the perspective of Western medicine, cervicitis, Trichomonas vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, and senile vaginitis are more common clinically.

If the amount of leucorrhea is not much, the color is milky white or egg white-like, and it has a slightly fishy smell, but there is no discomfort, then it is physiological leucorrhea. If the leucorrhea is excessive and becomes yellow, purulent, or even bloody, it is pathological. If the leucorrhea is grayish yellow, foamy, and has a fishy smell, and is accompanied by vulvar itching, burning, pain and sexual intercourse pain, it is mostly trichomoniasis vaginitis; if the leucorrhea is grayish white, like tofu dregs or like curd, and sometimes has a bad smell and is accompanied by vulvar itching and burning pain, it is mostly candidal vaginitis; if the leucorrhea is yellow and yellow-green, has a bad smell, like rice soup or pus, it is mostly caused by purulent bacterial infection, such as chronic cervicitis, vaginitis in the elderly and endometritis; if there is blood in the leucorrhea, the so-called bloody leucorrhea is more common in severe cervical erosion, cervical polyps, submucosal myomas, and cervical cancer; watery leucorrhea, that is, leucorrhea like thin water, sometimes like rice soup, it is mostly caused by cervical cancer, uterine body cancer, fallopian tube cancer, etc. In short, there are many causes of pathological leucorrhea, most of which are inflammation, and some are malignant tumors. Therefore, pathological leucorrhea should be examined in detail and treated in time after diagnosis.

It is best for female friends to have regular gynecological examinations, which can help detect many gynecological diseases early and minimize the damage caused to the female body. You should also pay attention to personal hygiene and do moderate physical exercise, which is also very beneficial for the effective prevention of gynecological diseases.
