Black vaginal discharge during ovulation

Abnormal leucorrhea is caused by vaginal diseases. Normal leucorrhea should be transparent, colorless, odorless and have a certain viscosity. However, some people's leucorrhea is black. In this case, it may be considered that there are blood clots or blood in it, which causes the black leucorrhea. You need to go to the hospital for examination.

What is black leucorrhea?

Experts say that black leucorrhea appears 1-2 days before and after the menstrual period. It is not that the leucorrhea is really black, but that there is residual menstrual blood in the leucorrhea. However, there are also abnormal leucorrhea. If it is not black leucorrhea during menstruation, what disease is it?

On the contrary, if the amount of leucorrhea increases, is yellow or yellow-green, pus-like, and has a foul odor, and if this situation persists for a long time, it is necessary to rule out the possibility of vaginal foreign body and consider possible causes such as vaginitis, cervical erosion, cervical polyps, endometrial lesions, tumors, etc.

To determine whether you have vaginitis or other diseases, you should seek medical attention in time and follow the doctor's advice. Do not blindly judge or treat yourself, because sometimes if women exercise too much or are overly tired and cause pelvic congestion, or if they are in the ovulation period, there will be a temporary increase in vaginal discharge. This requires us to pay more attention to gynecological examinations in our daily lives.

Tips: What gynecological examinations should be done for abnormal leucorrhea

1. Physical Examination

The doctor will examine from the outside to the inside, first visually inspecting the vulva, urethra, paraurethral glands and Bartholin's glands, and then using a vaginal speculum to observe the vaginal wall and cervix.

2. Laboratory Examination

1. pH value determination: Using paper strips to measure the pH value of vaginal discharge has certain value for diagnosis. The pH value of normal vaginal discharge is ≤4.5, while the pH value of discharge caused by Trichomonas and bacterial vaginosis increases.

2. The smell of amines: Doctors will test patients with excessive vaginal discharge to see if there is an amine smell. The leucorrhea of ​​bacterial vaginosis may have a fishy odor, which is caused by the volatilization of amines present in the discharge through alkalinization. This situation occasionally occurs in trichomoniasis leucorrhea, while normal leucorrhea and Candida leucorrhea do not have this amine odor.

3. Microbial culture.

3. Equipment Inspection

Observe the leucorrhea under a microscope. The correct diagnosis is more easily obtained with clues from the appearance of the discharge and observation under a microscope.

If abnormal leucorrhea persists for too long, it will make women's gynecological diseases more serious. If you find that you have abnormal leucorrhea, it is best to go to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible.
