What is the cause of the peculiar smell of vaginal discharge?

Under normal circumstances, secretions from the lower body have no odor, but sometimes women will find that the secretions from their lower body have an odor. Sometimes when the smell is too strong, it will make women feel inferior and affect their normal life. So, what is the matter with the odor of secretions from the lower body? Let me give you an answer below. I hope everyone can always pay attention to their health to avoid worsening of the condition.

Normal leucorrhea is beneficial to women's health because it can play a self-purification role. However, when the amount of leucorrhea is large, smelly, changes color or becomes purulent, it may be the body sending out an alarm, indicating the occurrence of certain gynecological diseases.

Abnormal leucorrhea or odor is believed by traditional Chinese medicine to be related to the spleen and kidneys, and is a mixed disease of deficiency and excess. If the spleen is weak or damaged by food, or phlegm and dampness block the spleen, spleen deficiency will cause dampness, and the belt meridian will be out of control, causing dampness and turbidity to flow downward, resulting in abnormal vaginal discharge. Either the person has kidney deficiency, or has sex too frequently or has multiple births which damage the kidney. Kidney deficiency can cause the belt meridian to become weak, resulting in white discharge. Equivalent to vaginitis in Western medicine. Western medicine believes that leucorrhea is a sticky white or colorless liquid that flows out of the vagina of female mammals. It is a mixture of secretions from the Bartholin's glands, cervical glands, endometrium, exudate from the vaginal mucosa, and desquamated vaginal epithelial cells.

Causes include:

Common female postmenstrual leucorrhea with odor is mostly caused by other disease factors, such as:

1. Leucorrhea after menstruation often has a fishy smell: In cases of vaginitis caused by some anaerobic bacteria infection, Trichomonas infection or Haemophilus vaginalis infection, the leucorrhea often has a fishy smell. The treatment of abnormal leucorrhea caused by Trichomonas vaginitis is the use of medication. After completing the first course of treatment, you can go to the hospital to check the Trichomonas situation. If it is not completely killed, use another course of treatment to make sure that the Trichomonas is killed. Otherwise, you will need to prevent repeated infection in the future.

2. Leucorrhea after menstruation often has a foul odor: Leucorrhea with a foul odor. Leucorrhea caused by inflammation is difficult to cure in the short term. Patients with cervical erosion have a longer recovery period. Only by curing the cervical lesions can the problem of leucorrhea be solved.

3. How to treat leucorrhea with a fishy smell after menstruation: Some vaginitis is caused by Haemophilus vaginalis, and the leucorrhea has a special fishy smell. At the same time, it is accompanied by symptoms such as vaginal burning, pain, itching, and vulva moisture. It is recommended to go to a regular gynecological hospital for diagnosis and treatment.

After the above introduction, I believe that patients have already understood what the odor of lower body secretions is. So, if you find that your lower body secretions smell bad, you must not feel embarrassed or ashamed to talk about it. It is best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible. After finding out the cause, you can receive treatment. I believe you will be healthy again.
