What information does an increase in female vaginal discharge indicate? What symptoms do women who are infected with sexually transmitted diseases experience
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are generally believed to only occur in men. In fact, if women engage in unclean sexual activity, they can also develop STDs. Below, we will take a look at the six major signals of women contracting STDs.
Symptom 1: Increased vaginal discharge, yellow or green pus, often accompanied by pain during urination, increased frequency of urination, and sometimes inability to urinate.
Reminder: Gonorrhea
It should be noted that some women infected with gonorrhea have no symptoms or mild symptoms, which can easily delay treatment. Male gonorrhea patients often have obvious symptoms, and gonorrhea is more easily transmitted to women than men. If a man with gonorrhea has had sexual contact without wearing a condom, the likelihood of infection in women is 40-60%. Therefore, women should learn to protect themselves and avoid contact with men with symptoms of gonorrhea. When dangerous sexual behavior occurs, even if the woman has no symptoms, she should go to the hospital for examination and early diagnosis and treatment.
Symptom 2: An increase in vaginal discharge, like tofu residue, white, clumped, and significantly increased in quantity. Often accompanied by internal
The external genitalia is itchy, and the itching is often very intense.
Candida vaginitis
This disease can be transmitted to the other party through sexual behavior, therefore it belongs to the category of generalized diseases. Unlike other sexually transmitted diseases, candidal vaginitis is a common female vaginitis, with 75% of women experiencing one episode in their lifetime and 40-50% experiencing more than two episodes. From the age of onset, the age of sexual activity around 20 years old is the best age of onset, and the incidence rate of over 50 years old is the lowest.
Some women, without paying attention to the cleaning of the vulva or using unclean toilet paper and sanitary napkins, use a large number of broad-spectrum antibiotics. Normal bacteria in the vagina are killed, and the flora is unbalanced, which is conducive to the growth of disease fungi. diabetes patients have high blood sugar values and are prone to infection with candidal vaginitis.
Symptom 3: strange itching of vulva, increased leucorrhea, foam can be seen, and yellow liquid is often seen on underpants.
Trichomoniasis vaginitis
This disease can also be transmitted to the other party through sexual behavior and belongs to the category of generalized diseases. Generally speaking, female trichomonas vaginitis is more common, mainly due to the destruction of the natural acidic environment of the vagina. However, the probability of male infection is very low, and many are asymptomatic.
Symptom 4: Ulcers on the surface of the genitalia. In most cases, ulcers will disappear within about a month.
