How to regulate leucorrhea in women

The leucorrhea secreted by women can indicate whether the body is healthy. Leucorrhea is colorless or light yellow and has no odor. If the leucorrhea has an odor or changes in color or is too much or too little, it is not normal. Abnormal leucorrhea is usually caused by vaginitis. There are several types of vaginitis. The cause must be found and treated symptomatically. How should women regulate excessive leucorrhea? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. How to treat excessive vaginal discharge in women?

Leucorrhea is an external manifestation of the vagina or lower reproductive organs. It may be caused by Trichomonas vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, bacterial vaginitis or some sexually transmitted diseases (such as gonorrhea, Chlamydia trachomatis infection, etc.). The treatment of leucorrhea caused by different causes is also different. If it is simply excessive vaginal discharge, it cannot be treated based on a single symptom. You need to go to the hospital for a corresponding gynecological examination to determine the cause of the excessive vaginal discharge, and then use specific symptomatic medication for treatment.

2.What is leucorrhea?

1. Leucorrhea is female vaginal discharge. The normal leucorrhea of ​​women is an odorless, slightly acidic viscous substance that has the functions of moistening the vagina, excreting waste, and inhibiting the growth of pathogens. It is a normal physiological phenomenon. In healthy women, the increase in vaginal discharge is directly proportional to the increase in estrogen levels in the body. For example, increased vaginal discharge during ovulation or pregnancy, excessive growth of the endometrium, or after the use of estrogen drugs can all occur.

2. Increased vaginal discharge does not necessarily mean illness, but most of the time it is caused by various gynecological diseases. It is mainly infection, such as vaginal Trichomonas infection, which is mostly transmitted through sexual intercourse. Patients often complain of a large amount of yellow-green or gray foamy and foul-smelling secretions, which are caused by many factors including pathogen infection and cervical erosion.

3. Leucorrhea prevention

1. Regular check-ups: Even if you do not feel any discomfort, you should still have regular check-ups. It is best to have a comprehensive gynecological examination at least once a year.

2. Seek medical attention promptly: If there is any increase in vaginal discharge or other discomfort, go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment immediately.

3. Be sure to take the medicine under the guidance of a doctor: if the medicine is not suitable for your condition, it may aggravate the condition.

4. Wear less tight pants: Wear less tight or close-fitting pants such as jeans, and avoid wearing tight nylon underwear. Choose cotton underwear.

5. Not using sanitary pads on weekdays: Some female friends are worried that leucorrhea will stain their underwear or are too lazy to wash their underwear, so they always use sanitary pads on weekdays. This practice is not advisable. When you are not menstruating, try not to use sanitary pads. Wash your vulva with clean water and change your underwear every night. In addition, do not use various medicinal liquids to clean the vagina, as this will damage the internal environment of the vagina and cause vaginitis.

6. Enhance immunity: insist on exercising to improve physical fitness; get enough sleep, eat a proper diet and have a balanced nutrition. Eat more foods rich in vitamins.

7. Psychological adjustment: Always find things to do that make you happy, or tend to flowers and plants, appreciate music, maintain a peaceful mental state, and avoid being overly excited, angry, and impatient.
