What does bloody vaginal discharge mean after menstruation?

Leucorrhea can accurately reflect the condition of the body. Many women find that their leucorrhea has blood in it. Some people always delay the prevention or treatment of the disease because of shyness. Now let’s talk about this: What does it mean if there is blood in the leucorrhea just after menstruation? We will make some practical suggestions based on your questions and hope that our opinions will be helpful to you. Here are our results:

Blood in leucorrhea indicates that bleeding has occurred in the female reproductive organs. During the reproductive period, physiological and regular bleeding is menstruation. In addition, bleeding is an important signal of disease. Routine examination of leucorrhea is done to identify the cause and symptomatic treatment.

Of course, we also have to consider the possibility that:

1. The amount of leucorrhea is small after the menstrual period, and before the ovulation period, due to the increase in estrogen levels in the body, the epithelial cells of the cervical glands proliferate, the secretion of cervical mucus increases, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus increases, which can absorb more water, causing the leucorrhea to increase during the ovulation period, with a thin texture and clear color. However, after the ovulation period, the estrogen level gradually decreases, the progesterone level increases, the secretion of cervical mucus is inhibited, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus also decreases, making the leucorrhea at this time thick, milky white, and even with blood.

2. Patients should consider the possibility of the following diseases: cervical polyps, acute vaginitis, severe cervical erosion, senile vaginitis, cervical cancer, submucous uterine fibroids, and endometrial cancer.

3. In addition, sometimes due to the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive ring, there may be some blood mixed in the leucorrhea.

The above are our conclusions based on your question. After reading this, please make your own decisions. Have a physical examination in time. If you suffer from gynecological diseases, please pay attention to your daily living habits and ask your doctor on the spot. I hope you can have a healthy body.
