Causes of watery yellowish discharge

If a woman's vaginal discharge or leucorrhea is colorless or milky white, it means that the woman's body is healthy. The primary symptoms of gynecological diseases are usually increased vaginal secretions, increased leucorrhea with odor, etc. Therefore, in order to better judge whether we have a gynecological disease, we must carefully understand the reasons why women's leucorrhea is abnormally yellow.

Reason 2 for yellow leucorrhea: Candidal vaginitis: It is one of the common vaginitis, often caused by Candida albicans infection, and is more common in pregnant women and diabetic patients. Long-term use of broad-spectrum antibiotics can cause imbalance of normal vaginal flora. It is conducive to the growth and reproduction of mold and is prone to this disease. Patients taking corticosteroids, immunosuppressants and autoimmune diseases are prone to this disease. Patients with vitamin B6 deficiency and chronic wasting diseases are prone to yellow leucorrhea.

Reason 3 for yellow leucorrhea: Trichomonas vaginitis: It is the most common vaginitis, caused by infection with Trichomonas vaginalis, which is an anaerobic parasitic protozoan that often parasitizes the urogenital tract. In women, it mainly exists in the vagina, and also in the urethra, paraurethral glands, bladder and other parts. In men, it often parasitizes in the urethra, prostate and other parts.

Reason 4 for yellow leucorrhea: senile vaginitis: more common in elderly women who have been postmenopausal for many years. After menopause, ovarian function declines, endogenous estrogen is deficient, genitals atrophy, vaginal epithelium becomes thinner, local resistance is weakened, pathogenic bacteria can easily multiply and cause inflammation. Reason 5 for yellow leucorrhea: caused by IUD insertion or painless abortion: If a woman has recently undergone surgery such as IUD insertion or painless abortion, her leucorrhea may also appear a little yellow, but it will not last too long and will generally return to normal in about a week. If the leucorrhea is abnormal for a long time, it is recommended that women should go to the hospital for a check-up to see if it is caused by gynecological diseases. No matter what the disease is, timely treatment is necessary to reduce the harm to the female body.

Through the above detailed understanding and introduction, we know the reasons for increased vaginal secretions or abnormal yellowish leucorrhea in women. At the same time, we also understand what kind of symptoms are generally caused when increased vaginal secretions and abnormal yellow leucorrhea occur. This is of great benefit to us in timely detection of gynecological diseases and timely treatment.
