What does it mean when the routine epithelial cell count for leucorrhea is three plus?

Leucorrhea is a white fluid that every sexually mature woman will have. It starts from the teenage menstrual period and stops at menopause. It can lubricate the vagina and prevent bacteria from invading the vagina under normal circumstances, and it is harmless to the human body. However, leucorrhea often becomes abnormal because women suffer from gynecological diseases. Some people find three plus epithelial cells during routine leucorrhea examination. What causes this?

Causes of abnormal vaginal discharge:

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease: increased leucorrhea, increased menstruation or menstrual disorders, distension and pain in the lower abdomen, soreness in the lumbosacral region, often aggravated by fatigue, after sexual intercourse, and before and after menstruation, sometimes accompanied by low fever, fatigue or lack of energy, general discomfort, and insomnia.

Gonorrhea: increased leucorrhea, yellow purulent discharge, burning sensation in the vulva, painful, frequent, or difficult urination, fever, chills, headache, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, and possibly prolonged menstruation and menorrhagia.

Vaginitis: increased leucorrhea, thin foamy or white thick bean curd-like, odorless or with a foul odor, itching, burning pain at the vaginal opening and vulva, or pain during sexual intercourse, sometimes frequent urination, painful urination, and hematuria.

Chronic cervicitis: Leucorrhea is excessive and is milky white mucous or light yellow purulent, occasionally mixed with a small amount of blood. There are also pains in the lumbar and sacral region, and pain in the pelvic region. In severe cases, it can cause infertility.

Uterine fibroids: increased leucorrhea, back pain, lower abdominal distension, abdominal pain, shortened menstrual cycle, heavy menstrual flow, prolonged menstrual period, irregular vaginal bleeding, a mass felt in the lower abdomen, or frequent urination, constipation, difficulty in defecation, and infertility.

Normal leucorrhea is white, or transparent like egg white, and the amount is relatively small. If you find that the color of your leucorrhea has changed, the amount of leucorrhea has increased, or even the leucorrhea becomes dregs-like or watery, this is a reminder to female friends that there is a problem with your body and you should see a doctor in time for symptomatic treatment.
