What is the cause of leucorrhea with blood after menstruation?

A problem that often troubles women in real life is the disorder of endocrine and hormone levels. Once these two are disordered, it is easy to cause irregular menstruation in women, and even blood in menstruation. So let’s discuss with you in detail what is going on with blood in menstruation?

Bloody leucorrhea: It is mostly caused by cervical polyps, senile vaginitis, severe chronic cervicitis, cervical cancer, uterine cancer or side effects of intrauterine contraceptive devices. In particular, there is varying amounts of blood mixed in the leucorrhea, accompanied by dizziness.

Leucorrhea refers to a liquid secreted from the female vagina, which under normal circumstances plays a role in lubricating and protecting the vagina. When the color, quality, and quantity of leucorrhea are abnormal, it is a manifestation of a certain disease. Traditional Chinese medicine calls it "leucorrhea" or "red and white discharge".

(1) Colorless, transparent, sticky leucorrhea: mostly caused by the use of estrogen drugs or physical weakness. Symptoms include normal appearance, heavy vaginal discharge, and lower back pain and fatigue. (2) Purulent leucorrhea: It is often caused by purulent bacterial infections such as Trichomonas vaginitis, chronic cervicitis, senile vaginitis, endometritis, uterine effusion, and vaginal foreign bodies. It appears yellow or yellow-green and has a fishy smell. (3) Tofu-like leucorrhea: It is caused by candidal vaginitis, accompanied by vulvar itching.

If there is blood in the leucorrhea, you should be alert to the possibility of malignant tumors such as cervical cancer and endometrial cancer. However, benign lesions such as cervical polyps, cervical erosion, submucosal myoma, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, urethral caruncle, senile vaginitis, etc. can also cause bloody leucorrhea, and a small amount of blood caused by intrauterine contraceptive devices.

Therefore, women still need to pay attention to the phenomenon of bleeding after menstruation. It may be due to recent bad living habits, which have led to endocrine disorders. Therefore, female friends must pay more attention to their own health and develop good living habits.
