What causes high white blood cell count in vaginal discharge?

Nowadays, the incidence of some gynecological diseases is continuously increasing. Therefore, in order to do a good job of prevention, many women are undergoing treatment within a certain period of time every year. When abnormalities occur, treatment can be started as soon as possible. For example, if the leukocyte count in leukorrhea is high during the examination, how is it caused? What is the cause of high leukocyte count in leukorrhea?

Routine examination of leucorrhea in women can reveal high white blood cell count, which is the main symptom of vaginitis. The main reason is the imbalance of intestinal flora in the vagina, a decrease in lactic acid bacteria, or an increase in other pathogens, which leads to an excess of white blood cells. A simple high white blood cell count only means that there is vaginitis, but it cannot determine the specific type of vaginitis. At this time, a comprehensive diagnosis should be made based on other items in the routine leucorrhea examination.

A high white blood cell count in a routine leucorrhea examination indicates the presence of inflammation, so you should pay attention to timely medication treatment. First of all, you should pay attention to antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatment, and you can choose vaginal suppositories or lotions for cleaning. Only by cooperating closely with doctors during treatment, ensuring good hygiene and cleaning, and doing a good job in medical care in every aspect can we promote health.

Finally, patients should pay attention to adjusting their diet and avoid eating irritating foods, such as raw, cold foods, spicy foods, etc. You can eat more foods that are light in taste and easy to digest. Fruits and vegetables cannot be lacking. Only by replenishing effective nutrients every day can you maintain health and reduce the occurrence of various abnormal phenomena.

The white blood cell count in normal female secretions is generally one minus sign to two minus signs. If it exceeds this range, it means that you have a gynecological disease. Common diseases that cause female discharge and elevated white blood cell count are inflammation of the vagina, cervix and endometritis. The secretions will also increase in volume and have a foul odor. Normal leucorrhea should be milky white or colorless and completely transparent, with a slight fishy smell or no odor. The amount of secretion is affected by the level of estrogen and progesterone in the body. The vagina of a normal person is acidic and has self-healing ability. However, due to the unique physiological and anatomical relationship of the vagina, it is very easy to be infected by external bacteria. In addition, due to low body resistance or unclean sexual life, lack of hygiene can easily cause vaginitis, endometritis and so on in women. Therefore, if a woman's leucorrhea has a high white blood cell count, it is generally considered to be caused by gynecological inflammation.
