The underwear is wet and has a sour smell

Women are particularly prone to some gynecological diseases, which are often manifested by symptoms such as abnormal leucorrhea, odor, and lower abdominal pain, which need to be taken seriously by female friends. Generally, women change their underwear every day, but they always find that their underwear is wet and has a sour smell, and they are particularly worried about whether they have some disease. This situation often indicates vaginitis, cervical erosion, adnexitis and other diseases. It is best to go to the hospital for relevant gynecological examinations to confirm the diagnosis.

Leucorrhea is a secretion from the female vagina. If there are problems with color, odor, etc., it may be due to illness. Therefore, if a woman's leucorrhea has an odor or something, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up in time. So, what tests are needed if there is an odor in your leucorrhea?

Routine examination of leucorrhea: This is the first examination that women should consider if their leucorrhea has an unpleasant odor or abnormal characteristics. The presence of Trichomonas, Chlamydia, etc. can be detected through secretions, and the cleanliness of the female vagina can also be tested.

Routine gynecological examination: The gynecologist will perform a vaginal examination and a bimanual examination on the patient to make a comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the patient's gynecological condition.

Vaginal B-ultrasound examination: The effect is significantly better than abdominal B-ultrasound. It can provide a more detailed understanding of the situation inside the vagina and can also detect diseases such as uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts early.

Electronic colposcope: It can magnify the vulva, vagina, cervix, etc. by 4 to 50 times. Through the colposcope, some tiny lesions that cannot be seen by the naked eye can be detected. These tiny lesions are of great value for the early detection and diagnosis of cervical precancerous lesions.

Abnormal odor of leucorrhea is a sign of gynecological infection. Normal leucorrhea may have a slightly sour smell because its pH value is low. As long as it does not have a fishy smell, it is normal. If a woman finds that her vaginal discharge is abnormal in color and has an unusual odor, she must go to the hospital for a check-up as soon as possible to avoid worsening the condition.

Precautions for vaginal odor

Leucorrhea is a normal physiological phenomenon for women. Normally, it should be colorless and odorless. However, when there is abnormality in leucorrhea, an unpleasant odor will float out from the female's private parts, and this odor will make women feel embarrassed. In order to avoid these embarrassments, you can pay attention to the following points in life:

1. Try to avoid wearing tight pants and wear suitable loose underwear.

2. Do not use sanitary pads during non-menstrual period. Pads have poor air permeability and the humid environment easily produces germs. If you use pads that are not disinfected well, the opposite effect will be achieved.

3. Clean the vulva every night. You can use a feminine care solution with a Ph4 weak acid formula, but the care solution does not need to be used every day.

4. Change your underwear every day and choose cotton underwear.

5. At the same time, you should maintain a normal schedule and not stay up late.

6. Do not eat spicy or irritating foods. Eat a reasonable and nutritionally balanced diet and eat foods rich in vitamins.

7. Keep exercising and do more things that make you happy. Exercise is good for your health and also helps with treatment.

8. According to the doctor's instructions, reduce or avoid sexual activity as much as possible during treatment to avoid cross infection.

9. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, learn to adjust your mentality, and maintain a good mental state and a happy mood.

10. Pay attention to care during pregnancy: pregnancy is prone to fungal attack. Pregnant women should not use oral medications and should try to prevent inflammation and maintain their health.
