What should I do if my leucorrhea turns yellow during pregnancy?

When a woman becomes pregnant, in addition to the joy of having become a prospective father or mother, she is more cautious, always fearing that some abnormalities in the pregnant woman's body will cause damage to the physical health and intelligence of the fetus. For example, normal leucorrhea is colorless, transparent, or white, but some pregnant women's leucorrhea appears yellow. What's going on? What should I do?

Because the estrogen level in pregnant women is relatively high, the amount of glycogen in the cells of the vaginal epithelium will continue to increase. Under the action of vaginal lactobacilli, glycogen will be converted into lactic acid, which greatly increases the acidity of the vagina, which is conducive to the reproduction of Candida albicans and causes inflammation.

When a pregnant woman's leucorrhea turns yellow, she should first go to the hospital to check the routine leucorrhea to see if she has vaginitis. Because during pregnancy, the acid-base balance of the vagina will change, allowing bacteria to take advantage of the opportunity to enter. Before going to the hospital for examination, you must tell the doctor that you are pregnant, so sampling can only be taken at the vaginal opening. Develop a good habit of scrubbing the vulva every day. When scrubbing, wash from front to back, first wash the vagina and then the anus. This is to avoid bacterial infection.

Another reason why pregnant women have yellow leucorrhea is that they do not pay attention to hygiene, which causes gynecological diseases such as genital eczema and vaginitis, such as candidal vaginitis, Trichomonas vaginitis, etc. Vaginitis has a great impact on the baby in the fetus. Infection after the middle of pregnancy will increase the incidence of premature birth or premature rupture of membranes and puerperal infection. The baby will be infected when passing through the birth canal, which may lead to vaginitis and vulvitis in the newborn. If a female baby is infected, she will develop symptoms after puberty due to the increase in estrogen secretion. Therefore, pregnant women must pay more attention to health and hygiene in their lives.

Some minor problems in the pregnant woman's body may be major problems that endanger the health of the fetus, so the pregnant woman's diet, hygiene, exercise, rest, etc. should be taken seriously to avoid accidents to the fetus. Once you find some abnormal signs in a pregnant woman's body, you should see a doctor in time.
