What causes excessive vaginal discharge?

If there is a lot of secretion, women need to pay attention, because many gynecological diseases may show such symptoms, such as common vaginitis, candidal infection or uterine polyps, etc.

1. The colorless, transparent and sticky leucorrhea is like raw eggs. The physical difference from normal vaginal secretion is that the amount is large and the duration is long. Except for menstruation, there is a large amount of clear leucorrhea that wets the underwear almost every day. Combined with the clinical manifestations of low back pain or lower abdominal pain, pelvic inflammation should be considered. It should also be seen in those with weak bodies. At this time, it is best to ask a gynecologist for diagnosis and treatment.

2. Purulent leucorrhea with a fishy odor (or thin, purulent, watery leucorrhea) accompanied by vulvar itching is common in the acute stage of Trichomonas or purulent bacterial infection (gonococci, etc.) or viral infection.

3. Bean-dregs-like or curd-like leucorrhea, accompanied by unbearable itching of the vulva. Even in public, one cannot help rubbing the vulva with hands to relieve the itching. Common in Candida infections.

4. Yellow or fish-wash-water-like slightly reddish leucorrhea, accompanied by a foul odor, is often caused by necrosis or degeneration of certain tissues. Those who need to use sanitary pads when the amount is large should pay more attention and ask a doctor to check and rule out submucosal uterine fibroids, uterine body cancer, cervical cancer, etc.

5. Bloody leucorrhea is common in senile vaginitis, cervical polyps, severe cervical erosion, cervical cancer, uterine body cancer, submucosal uterine fibroids protruding from the external os of the cervix, etc. If bloody leucorrhea occurs, you should immediately see a doctor to check the bleeding area. Do not wait until the bloody leucorrhea disappears before seeing a doctor, thereby losing the opportunity to directly observe the bloody leucorrhea. If it is postmenopausal hemorrhagic leucorrhea, you should ask your doctor to rule out the possibility of cancer. Generally speaking, the chance of cancer is rare, and it is most commonly caused by inflammation. Therefore, please do not panic or even suffer from insomnia when you see bloody bands. The wisest choice is to see a doctor for a thorough examination and immediate treatment.
