What is the problem of not much leucorrhea?

Leucorrhea is a secretion discharged from the vagina and is a normal physiological phenomenon. Healthy vaginal discharge is not excessive in volume, is white in color, and has no peculiar smell. The amount of vaginal discharge is directly related to a woman's physical condition. Whether the amount of vaginal discharge increases or decreases, it may have adverse effects on the body. So, what is the reason for not having enough vaginal discharge? Let’s take a closer look at it below.

The cause of too little leucorrhea is generally due to ovarian dysfunction or decline, and low levels of sex hormones. Clinically, it is generally caused by chronic hepatitis, diabetes, chronic nephritis or hypothyroidism.

Generally speaking, too little vaginal discharge is caused by ovarian dysfunction or decline, and a decrease in sex hormone levels, which can lead to death. It is common in patients with too many miscarriages, too long breastfeeding, long-term mental trauma, and various chronic diseases, such as chronic hepatitis, chronic nephritis, diabetes, hypothyroidism, etc. After entering menopause, women will also have a lack of vaginal discharge due to the gradual atrophy and loss of function of the ovaries.

After a woman's ovulation period, the estrogen level gradually decreases, the progesterone level increases, the secretion of cervical mucus is inhibited, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus also decreases, making the leucorrhea thick, less milky white, less ductile, and easily broken when drawn. What is the reason for less vaginal discharge? There are also some physiological phenomena, such as pregnancy or oral contraceptives, which can cause increased or less vaginal discharge. The reason is also related to changes in estrogen and progesterone levels in the body.

Women with excessive vaginal discharge may experience symptoms such as vaginal dryness, burning pain, and discomfort during sexual intercourse. Women with too little vaginal discharge should go to the hospital for examination and professional treatment in time. If the leucorrhea secretion is too little due to chronic diseases, you should strengthen your physical fitness while undergoing treatment, and eat more foods rich in vitamins and proteins to enhance the secretion of hormones. In short, leucorrhea is one of the important factors in women's health and should be taken seriously.

The above is an introduction to what causes a small amount of leucorrhea. I hope it will be helpful for women to understand. The amount of leucorrhea is relative. If the amount of leucorrhea decreases significantly during the same period, it is a typical leucorrhea abnormality. It is best to go to a relevant gynecological hospital for a comprehensive examination to find the cause, so that better treatment can be carried out to avoid greater impact on our health.
