What is the reason for bloody vaginal discharge after menstruation?

Irregular menstruation is a problem that many women will encounter, including dysmenorrhea, prolonged menstrual cycles, delayed menstruation and other manifestations. Therefore, many women think that the bloody leucorrhea after menstruation is caused by irregular menstruation, so they do not take it very seriously. In fact, brown leucorrhea is often an early sign of disease, so it needs to be taken seriously. So, what is the reason why leucorrhea is brown?

Leucorrhea is a white liquid that flows out of the vagina of women. Leucorrhea is divided into physiological leucorrhea and pathological leucorrhea. Pathological leucorrhea is mostly caused by inflammation. Generally speaking, some women will experience ovulation bleeding during their ovulation period, also known as mid-menstrual bleeding, which refers to a small amount of bleeding between two normal menstrual periods, which may be accompanied by varying degrees of lower abdominal pain. If there is blood in the leucorrhea after menstruation is caused by pathology, it may be a common symptom of many diseases and should be taken seriously.

1. If there is still blood in the leucorrhea after menstruation and it lasts for a long time, female friends should pay attention to it. Bloody leucorrhea, or leucorrhea mixed with blood, should first indicate the possibility of malignant tumors such as cervical tumors and endometrial tumors. Secondly, cervical diseases, such as cervical polyps, cervical erosion, submucosal myoma, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, urethral caruncle, and intrauterine contraceptive device-induced bloody leucorrhea are also more common.

2. After the menstrual period, the amount of leucorrhea is small. Before ovulation, 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 ovulation and become thinner and clear in color. However, after ovulation, estrogen levels gradually decrease, while progesterone levels increase, the secretion of cervical mucus is inhibited, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus also decreases, making the leucorrhea thick, milky white, and even with blood.

Female friends cannot ignore this problem and must take it seriously. It is best to go to a regular hospital for examination and receive symptomatic treatment after the examination.

What needs to be reminded here is that if the leucorrhea is brown and caused by disease, you must receive timely treatment, because whether it is a minor gynecological disease or a serious gynecological disease, it will affect fertility, and when the disease is mild, it is easier to treat and has little impact on fertility. Therefore, no matter what the reason for the brown leucorrhea, women should actively deal with it.
