Green purulent vaginal discharge

The female vagina secretes a transparent or yellowish liquid, which is leucorrhea. Leucorrhea is a colorless and odorless liquid. Once the leucorrhea is abnormal, it is likely caused by gynecological diseases. If the leucorrhea is abnormal, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Many people still don’t understand what is going on with green and purulent leucorrhea. What is going on with green and purulent leucorrhea? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. What happens if the leucorrhea contains green purulent discharge?

Purulent leucorrhea often indicates inflammation and infection. Normal leucorrhea is colorless and transparent like an egg, usually odorless or slightly fishy. When purulent leucorrhea appears, it is usually yellow and smelly. It is most common in trichomoniasis vaginitis, followed by chronic cervicitis. Purulent leucorrhea can also occur in endometritis, uterine cavity pyometra, vaginal foreign bodies, etc. Therefore, suppuration indicates bacterial infection and medical treatment should be sought in time.

2. What to do about vaginitis?

1. First, choose an external suppository for the treatment of vaginitis.

It is sold in pharmacies, and you have to go to a regular pharmacy to buy it. There are all kinds of brands and prices vary, but the therapeutic ingredients for bacteria are similar.

2. After cleaning the vulva, wash your hands as well.

It is important to pay attention to hygiene and avoid reinfection, which will waste the results of previous work. Developing good habits can also help avoid infectious diseases such as vaginitis after stopping the medication.

3. Make preparations for medication

Put on the disposable finger cap that comes with the suppository and remove the outer plastic cover of the suppository. Finger condoms must be worn to avoid bacteria on the fingers, which may bring new sources of infection to the vagina.

4. Send the medicine deep into the vagina.

When applying the medicine, find a posture that makes it easier to push it deep into the vagina, because getting the medicine deep into the vagina is very important for treatment. If the suppository is placed too shallowly, the area that contacts the affected area after the drug dissolves will be greatly reduced, and the therapeutic effect will not be very good.

5. It is best to apply the medicine at night.

This way you can go to sleep directly. The lying position will not allow the medicine to leak out easily. The medicine can be fully dissolved and act on the infected area to kill the bacteria.

6. You must continue to take the medicine for at least 3 months. A shorter period of time will not achieve the therapeutic effect. Except for one week's rest during menstruation, you should take the medicine every day for 3-4 months. It is necessary to wait such a long time before stopping the medication, because the bacteria will not be completely killed in a short period of time, and the disease will relapse again after stopping the medication.

3. Notes

During this period, you should remember to change your underwear frequently and suspend sexual intercourse to avoid cross infection.
