Women will experience menstruation and leucorrhea after entering puberty. Many women will find that when the menstrual period is about to come, they will find that the leucorrhea increases during this period. I believe many people do not know what the reason is. Is it normal to have increased leucorrhea before menstruation? In fact, this needs to be judged based on personal circumstances. Below, the editor will analyze this phenomenon for everyone. Is it normal to have increased vaginal discharge before menstruation? Experts at the Gynecological Hospital said that whether the increase in leucorrhea before menstruation is normal needs to be determined based on the specific circumstances. Women may experience increased vaginal discharge and general fatigue before menstruation. This is normal and is caused by the influence of estrogen on the female body. After girls enter puberty, their ovarian function tends to mature. Under the influence of ovarian endocrine, vaginal epithelial cells are regularly regenerated and shed, and a small amount of fluid can exude from the vaginal wall. The mucous glands of the cervix also change periodically under the influence of ovarian endocrine secretion and secrete white mucus. These epithelial cells, mucus, and liquid mix together and flow out of the vagina as "leucorrhea". Normal leucorrhea is egg white-like, transparent and odorless. Before menstruation, the pelvic cavity becomes congested and the blood flow in the cervix and vagina increases, so more leucorrhea is secreted than usual. It may be a little pink when menstruation is approaching, and then gradually turns into blood, which is menstruation. Whether there is an increase in leucorrhea before menstruation, in addition to the phenomenon of increased leucorrhea, there will generally be symptoms such as breast fullness, hardness, tenderness, abdominal pain, etc. Menstrual symptoms may be different for different people. After the menstruation is over, the blood flow in the uterus and vagina returns to normal and the leucorrhea also decreases. In addition, some people also have more leucorrhea when they are tired or ovulating, which is normal. If the color of the leucorrhea turns yellow, becomes purulent, has a foul odor, and is accompanied by vulvar itching, this is abnormal and you need to go to the hospital for examination and treatment. Normal leucorrhea is colorless and transparent like egg white, generally odorless or slightly fishy. Leucorrhea that is yellowish and has an odor is often a sign of gynecological inflammation. In order to get rid of the trouble of wet leucorrhea, many women use sanitary pads in large quantities. However, not only does the leucorrhea not decrease, but it becomes worse and the symptoms become more obvious, even turning yellow and green. In severe cases, it can produce a strong odor. What is the reason for this? Leucorrhea with a strong odor is a manifestation of inflammation of the female reproductive tract infection, which is more common in vaginitis, cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, cervical erosion, etc. You should go to a regular professional hospital for relevant gynecological examinations in time to understand the cause and receive symptomatic treatment to avoid missing the best time for treatment. In addition, the editor reminds that some women often use a large number of sanitary pads to control leucorrhea, but doing so will actually allow bacteria to invade. Therefore, in daily life, if you have leucorrhea, you should pay attention to personal hygiene and change your underwear frequently. When the amount of leucorrhea increases, you should wash your genitals with warm water to keep the vulva clean. |
