What is the reason for blood streaks in leucorrhea?

Women's leucorrhea can be said to be a barometer of the reproductive system, especially the color of the leucorrhea can reflect the problems of different diseases and tell you where the problem is. The color of leucorrhea is generally colorless, transparent or milky white, but if there is blood in the leucorrhea, you need to pay special attention to find out what is causing it. There are two reasons for bloody vaginal discharge, one is physiological and the other is pathological. You can read the description below for a brief understanding.

1. Physiological, that is, ovulation bleeding. It usually occurs between two menstrual periods or about 14 days before the next menstrual period. Some women experience bleeding during ovulation due to changes in hormone levels, which causes the endometrium to shed. Generally the amount is not large and it will get better on its own after a day or two.

2. Pathological. There are many reasons why leucorrhea with blood is caused by disease. For example: damage to the vaginal wall, cervical lesions, endometrial lesions, or endocrine disorders, etc. Vaginal wall injuries are mostly caused by trauma, which can be treated according to the severity of the injury; cervical lesions include cervical erosion, cervical cysts, cervical polyps, cervical cancer, etc., which are all causes of bleeding. Most manifestations are contact bleeding.

3. In short, as to why there is blood in the leucorrhea, experts point out that in order to confirm whether it is caused by these reasons, it is necessary to conduct examinations through colposcopy and cervical scraping, and treat according to the severity of the disease; bleeding caused by endometrial cancer and uterine fibroids is also not uncommon, and the amount of bleeding will be larger. The bleeding time caused by uterine fibroids will be longer, and it may be a few days to more than ten days. Endometrial cancer can be diagnosed through endometrial scraping and blood test, and uterine fibroids can be diagnosed through B-ultrasound.

The above are the reasons why leucorrhea contains blood. If it is physiological, don’t worry. If it is pathological, you can just have a detailed examination in the hospital. Don't have too much psychological burden. The female reproductive system is also a part of the body, just like the mouth, and there will also be bleeding symptoms. Just treat it actively and don't worry too much.
