What is the cause of white sediment in women's urine?

Not only girls are familiar with menstruation, but I guess many boys with girlfriends also know about it. However, it is true that many female friends don’t know about leucorrhea. But in fact, its "appearance rate" is much higher than menstruation. Many times it will respond to some physical conditions. So below I will give you some relevant knowledge about leucorrhea.

Leucorrhea is a discharge from the vagina. Under normal circumstances, the amount is very small, white, sticky, and odorless. It contains mucus secreted by the cervix, exudates from the vaginal mucosa, epidermal cells shed from the uterus and vagina, as well as a small amount of white blood cells and non-pathogenic vaginal bacilli. When there is inflammation or tumor in the reproductive organs, vaginal discharge may increase due to inflammatory exudate or tissue necrosis, and may be purulent or bloody and have a foul odor. It is advisable to check it out in time. There are two types of leucorrhea: 1. Physiological leucorrhea, including secretions from the labia majora and minora, Bartholin's glands, vaginal exudates and cervical glands, and a small amount secreted by the endometrium. It is a white, flocculent, viscous liquid, the amount and properties of which vary slightly with the menstrual cycle. .The sensitivity of leucorrhea varies greatly from person to person. Some women have a lot of leucorrhea but do not feel any discomfort, while others, although their reproductive tract secretions are normal or only slightly increased, often have a wet feeling in the vulva and feel confused and uncomfortable, so they are eager to seek treatment. This is related to one's personality, social status and cultural level. In fact, all healthy women under the influence of estrogen have reproductive tract discharge, commonly known as leucorrhea, which should not be understood as a pathology. Among patients who complain of increased leucorrhea, about 10% have physiological leucorrhea, or normal cervical fluid, or normal exfoliation of vaginal epithelial cells. Therefore, for patients with increased leucorrhea, we should first distinguish whether it is physiological or pathological leucorrhea.

Types of pathological leucorrhea include: (i) non-inflammatory leucorrhea; (ii) inflammatory leucorrhea: bacterial vaginosis, Trichomonas vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, senile vaginitis, gonorrheal vaginitis, chronic cervicitis or cervical erosion; (iii) irritant leucorrhea; (iv) cancerous leucorrhea; and (v) other vaginal discharges. If your vaginal discharge increases for no apparent reason, or is accompanied by changes in color, texture, or odor, you should be alert to pathological vaginal discharge.

The above is some common knowledge about leucorrhea. There are many more specific ones, which I will not elaborate on here. If you want to know more, you can log in to the website to search for relevant knowledge by yourself, or you can consult relevant books, or you can choose to go to the hospital for professional understanding. Finally, I wish you all good health.
