It is said that women are magical animals. This is not only reflected in their personalities, but also in their bodies, which are very different from men. The most common situation is that women have their periods every month, but men do not. Because of different body structures, women also secrete some white substances in their daily lives, which is leucorrhea. If the leucorrhea is a bit sticky, what is the reason? Is it caused by disease? The viscosity of leucorrhea is due to the varying secretions of estrogen. Generally, the secretion of estrogen reaches its peak between two menstrual periods (equivalent to the ovulation period). Excessive estrogen stimulates the cervical glands to secrete more mucus, so the leucorrhea at this time is abundant and transparent, and is sticky like egg white and can be pulled into threads, and the vulva feels moist. After the ovulation of the follicle, progesterone increases and inhibits the secretion of cervical mucus. At this time, the leucorrhea is less in amount and thicker. Normal leucorrhea for women should be transparent egg white-like or milky white and paste-like. If the leucorrhea is thick like yellow snot, or thick and paste-like, it indicates that the leucorrhea is abnormal. Thick leucorrhea may be caused by internal heat in the body, heat in the spleen and stomach, etc., which is a physiological leucorrhea abnormality. In addition, disease factors such as infection caused by improper dressing, vaginitis, cervical erosion, etc. may cause thick leucorrhea, which is a pathological manifestation. If the symptoms of thick leucorrhea are not obvious, they can usually be relieved by drinking more water, paying attention to personal hygiene, and avoiding spicy foods. You can just apply Yuxueqing externally. During the treatment, you are prohibited from having sexual intercourse to avoid mutual infection and long-term illness. symptom 1. Colorless, transparent, sticky leucorrhea: Similar to egg white, or slightly turbid, but except for the increased viscosity of the leucorrhea, there are rarely other symptoms. This type of leucorrhea is more common in chronic cervicitis, endocervicitis and after the use of estrogen. 2. Yellow mucous leucorrhea: seen in cervical erosion, chronic cervicitis, etc. It is a thick leucorrhea caused by mild infection. 3. White mucous leucorrhea: The properties are the same as normal, but the amount is increased. This type of leucorrhea occurs after the use of estrogen or when the pelvic cavity is congested. It is caused by increased secretion of cervical glands and vaginal mucosa. If you find that your vaginal discharge increases, or is accompanied by changes in color, texture, or odor, such as thick vaginal discharge, you should be alert and go to the hospital as soon as possible for a detailed gynecological examination and routine vaginal discharge tests, combined with a doctor's examination, to determine the cause. Leucorrhea is routinely used to check for the presence of Trichomonas and Candida in the vagina, and can also determine the cleanliness of the vagina. |
