What is the reason for increased vaginal discharge and vulvar itching?

Most women will have leucorrhea, but under normal circumstances, the leucorrhea will not be too much. It only serves to lubricate the vagina and resist viruses. If you find that your vaginal discharge has increased a lot, there is often a lot of vaginal discharge on your underwear, and the vaginal discharge is even dregs-like or watery, and is accompanied by symptoms of vulvar itching, it means that there are some problems in your body and you should get checked and treated in time.

1. Pelvic inflammation

Generally speaking, normal leucorrhea should be colorless and odorless, and at the same time, transparent and viscous like egg white. This is considered normal leucorrhea. However, although many women seem to have abnormal leucorrhea, they actually have the characteristics of large amount and long duration. Except for menstruation, they have a large amount of clear leucorrhea that wets their underwear almost every day. Once this happens, female friends should pay attention, because at this time you may have a gynecological disease.

2. Trichomonas infection

Some women also have purulent leucorrhea with a fishy smell, or thin, watery leucorrhea with pus, accompanied by occasional vulvar itching symptoms. Both of these symptoms indicate that you are likely to have a trichomoniasis or purulent bacterial infection. At this time, female friends should go to the hospital as soon as possible for further examination and then receive active treatment. Women should be responsible for their own health.

3. Uterine fibroids

Many women's leucorrhea is mainly yellow or slightly red like fish washing water, and is accompanied by a foul smell. Most of these leucorrhea are caused by necrosis or degeneration of certain tissues. In addition to the above symptoms, the amount of leucorrhea will suddenly increase, and even sanitary pads will be needed. Female friends should pay attention to this and go to the hospital as soon as possible to check and rule out submucosal uterine fibroids, uterine body cancer, cervical cancer, etc.

When the leucorrhea is abnormal, you should pay attention to it, because it indicates that there is a problem in the body. Diseases such as pelvic inflammatory disease, vaginitis, uterine fibroids, cervical erosion, etc. may cause abnormal leucorrhea. These diseases will seriously trouble women and affect their normal lives. Therefore, once you find abnormal leucorrhea, you must seek medical attention in time.
