What kind of diet should women pay attention to when having milky white tofu-like leucorrhea

Modern women have more and more gynecological diseases, such as milky white and curd-like leucorrhea is one of them. Let’s talk about what diet women should pay attention to in order to understand the cause of milky white and curd-like leucorrhea. Leucorrhea that is milky white and looks like tofu dregs is a typical fungal infection. Vaginal candidiasis is a common vaginal inflammation in gynecology, which is classified as "vaginal itch" in traditional Chinese medicine. The disease is prone to relapse. The causes of candidal vaginitis are increased glycogen in the vagina, increased acidity, and massive reproduction of Candida albicans among the fungi. Tofu-like leucorrhea refers to the discharge that looks like tofu dregs, which is white and lumpy. Because most leucorrhea is sticky and yellow, it is easy to distinguish.

Since milky white tofu-like leucorrhea is a typical symptom of candidal vaginitis, we should also understand candidal vaginitis: it is a vaginal candidiasis infection that occurs in women. The most common symptoms of candidal vaginitis are vulvar itching and increased leucorrhea. Typical symptoms of candidal vaginitis are white, tofu-like leucorrhea, and a layer of white film may form on the inside and outside of the labia minora and the vaginal mucosa. Vulvar itching often spreads gradually from the inner side of the labia minora to the vulva, causing extreme itching that is often unbearable for patients. It is often accompanied by vulvar burning sensation, pain, and dyspareunia. Secondary pyogenic infection may cause purulent leucorrhea. Inflammatory infection of the vaginal mucosa may cause bloody leucorrhea and superficial ulcers of the mucosa. Secondary urinary tract infection will cause symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating

What should I eat if my leucorrhea is milky white and has tofu dregs?

1. Patients with candidal vaginitis generally need to eat light food, mainly high in protein and low in fat.

2. If you have itching, you should eat amaranth, cabbage, mustard greens, taro, kelp, seaweed, chicken blood, snake meat, and pangolin.

3. Eat more vegetables and fruits, such as bananas, sweet potatoes, celery, etc.

4. If the amount of leucorrhea increases, you can eat more foods such as leeks, lentils, millet, tofu, lotus seeds, walnuts, and ginkgo nuts.

5. Drink more yogurt (especially the kind with active Lactobacillus acidophilus, which can kill harmful yeast-like fungi).

What should you not eat if your leucorrhea is milky white and has a bean curd-like appearance?

1. Avoid spicy foods and drinks such as chili peppers, peppercorns, raw onions, raw garlic, and white wine.

2. Avoid irritating foods: Sea fish, crabs, shrimps, clams, razor clams, oysters, abalone and other aquatic products are all irritating foods and are not conducive to the reduction of inflammation.

3. Avoid sweet and greasy foods: Overly sweet and greasy foods such as candy, cream cakes, eight-treasure rice pudding, glutinous rice cakes, lard and fatty pork, mutton fat, and egg yolks. These foods can help to dampen the body and reduce the therapeutic effect, making the disease protracted and difficult to treat.

4. Avoid drinking alcohol: Alcohol is a warm and stimulating food. Drinking it will aggravate dampness and heat, making the condition worse.

5. Avoid greasy, fried, moldy, and pickled foods.

Therefore, women should pay attention to disease prevention. It is recommended not to use sanitary pads for a long time. They are not breathable. Due to the large amount of leucorrhea secretions, the vulva is often kept moist, which has a certain irritation to the local skin. It destroys the balance of the vagina and easily causes infection. Pay attention to hygiene and change underwear frequently. Women should change their underwear once a day. Pay attention to personal hygiene and it is best to put the changed underwear in the sun to cool. You can use warm water to clean your private parts. If you have sex, pay attention to hygiene before and after sex, go to the hospital regularly for routine gynecological examinations, and be a healthy woman.
