Whether there is too much or too little vaginal discharge is abnormal, and vaginal discharge should not have any color. It is abnormal for some women to have blood or brown vaginal discharge. If there is too much vaginal discharge, it may be caused by vaginal or uterine disease. 1. Pathogen infection The use of contaminated sanitary products allows pathogens to enter the reproductive tract through the vaginal opening, causing infection and increased vaginal discharge. Some types of pathogens enter the female reproductive system and may infect the reproductive tract, causing increased vaginal discharge. For example, when women go to the toilet, if they wipe the toilet paper in the wrong direction, they may bring bacteria from the anus to the reproductive tract and cause excessive vaginal discharge. Therefore, when women use toilet paper to wipe the anus, they should develop the habit of wiping from the vaginal opening to the anus or to the side. 2. Trichomonas vaginalis infection If a woman's vagina is infected with Trichomonas, it will cause an increase in leucorrhea, accompanied by symptoms of foul odor and itching. 3. Cervical erosion The trauma of childbirth, hormonal changes, or cervical inflammation caused by marital behavior may lead to cervical erosion and increase the amount of leucorrhea. A small number of women may experience cervical erosion without any cause, which is called "congenital cervical erosion", which can also cause increased leucorrhea. 4. Filterable viral infection of the cervix, vagina and vulva Some viral infections resolve without treatment. 5. Increased leucorrhea caused by Candida albicans infection Candida albicans has two characteristics: the first is that it has very strong vitality; the second is that it likes moisture. Therefore it is not easy to cure. People who take antibiotics, drugs or adrenal steroids for a long time, as well as pregnant women, diabetics, and women who like to wear tight clothes are more susceptible to infection, and it is not easy to cure once infected. 6. Atrophic vaginitis A small number of women have lost both ovaries due to illness or have early menopause or are post-menopausal women. Due to the gradual lack of estrogen in the body, the vaginal wall gradually becomes fragile and susceptible to bacterial infection and inflammation, leading to increased leucorrhea. It is also possible that increased vaginal discharge may occur at a young age due to vaginal atrophy and inflammation. 7. Foreign objects have entered the reproductive organs If foreign objects enter the female vagina, it will also cause an increase in leucorrhea, such as gauze, tampons and other items. |
