Excessive leucorrhea and lower abdominal distension

When the amount of vaginal discharge increases, female friends will experience various symptoms one after another, but the most important one is that they will feel a distension in their lower abdomen. This may be a symptom of the approaching menstruation. The specific conclusion can only be drawn after judging the disease through the examination results and symptoms. The chance of suffering from fallopian tube inflammation will become greater and it will be more difficult to treat.

There are two main sources of pathogens that cause inflammation of the female reproductive tract: one is from the bacteria that parasitize in the vagina, and the other is from pathogens that invade from the outside. Common diseases include:

1. Fallopian tube inflammation

Increased vaginal discharge is the main symptom of salpingitis and fallopian tube obstruction. According to surveys, factors such as fallopian tube inflammation and fallopian tube blockage account for the number one factor of female inflammatory infertility, and fallopian tube blockage or poor circulation accounts for 1/3 of all female infertility.

2. Endometritis

Increased vaginal discharge is also an early symptom of endometritis. The endometrium plays a role in menstruation, reproduction, excretion and endocrine function. Once inflammation occurs, all of the above functions will be disturbed, leading to infertility. Severe endometritis, such as intrauterine adhesions, can destroy the integrity and function of the endometrium and lead to female infertility.

3. Drug factors

It is mostly caused by the use of estrogen drugs or physical weakness. It is often manifested as excessive vaginal discharge, accompanied by lower back pain and fatigue.

4. Infection

Common causes include trichomoniasis vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, chronic cervicitis, senile vaginitis, uterine effusion, vaginal foreign bodies and other purulent bacterial infections. It appears yellow or yellow-green and has a fishy smell.

To check whether the leucorrhea is normal, you need to observe the amount, color, texture and smell.

1. Gynecological examination

The examination is carried out from outside to inside. First, the vulva, urethra, paraurethral glands and Bartholin's glands are inspected visually, and then the vaginal wall and cervix are observed through a vaginal speculum. Check the appearance of vaginal discharge and cervical discharge.

2. Laboratory examination

(1) pH value: The normal pH is 3.8-4.4. The pH value of leucorrhea increases when suffering from trichomoniasis or bacterial vaginitis.

(2) Vaginal cleanliness: Grade III: A small amount of vaginal lactobacilli, a large number of pus cells and miscellaneous bacteria are seen under the microscope. Grade IV: No vaginal bacilli are seen under the microscope, and except for a small amount of epithelial cells, there are mainly pus cells and miscellaneous bacteria. Grades III to IV are abnormal leucorrhea, indicating vaginal inflammation. Grades Ⅰ to Ⅱ are normal.

(3) Fungi and Trichomonas: If Trichomonas or fungi are present, regardless of the quantity, they will be indicated by a “+”. The “+” symbol only indicates that the woman is infected with Trichomonas or fungi, and does not indicate the severity of the infection.
