Is the vaginal discharge brown in color? Don't be careless!

Under normal circumstances, women's leucorrhea can be described in one word: crystal clear, and there is no unpleasant smell. But for some unknown reason, some women suddenly find that their leucorrhea turns brown. What is going on? Is it related to disease? In fact, if this happens, you must check it out in time. It is related to a variety of gynecological diseases. Let me answer this question for you below.

What is the disease of brown vaginal discharge?

Experts point out that abnormal leucorrhea must not be taken lightly. If it is not treated in time and not eradicated, serious sequelae may occur, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, etc. In severe cases, terminal illnesses such as vaginal cancer, uterine cancer, and cervical cancer may occur. Most middle-aged women who suffer from cancer do so because they did not pay attention to abnormal leucorrhea when they were young, which caused the disease to worsen.

Precautions for increased leucorrhea during pregnancy

1. Pay attention to hygiene. Use a special basin, cleaning utensils and towels to wash the vulva. Cleaning utensils should be washed before use, and towels should be dried in the sun or in a ventilated place after use. It is best to expose them to the sun to facilitate sterilization and disinfection. Because towels are not exposed to sunlight for a long time, they are prone to breed bacteria and fungi.

2. Just wash with warm water. It is not recommended to use lotion because some lotions will affect the pH value of the vagina, and some lotions contain chemical ingredients that may cause skin allergies.

Early pregnancy is a very important stage in a woman's pregnancy. Problems that arise during this stage often persist throughout the entire pregnancy. Therefore, problems that arise at this stage must be handled with caution. If the leucorrhea is dark in color, has an unpleasant odor, or causes genital itching in early pregnancy, you need to go to the clinic for relevant examinations to confirm what kind of pathogen is causing the infection, and then take different treatments according to different pathogens. However, if the leucorrhea is just heavy in amount, has no foul odor, does not cause itching, and has no special color such as red, brown, or yellow-green, it is a normal pregnancy phenomenon and does not require special treatment.
