What's wrong with vaginal discharge?
After menstruation, there are changes in the quantity, color, characteristics, and odor of vaginal discharge in women, as well as symptoms such as low back pain, abdominal pain, and external genital itching, indicating abnormal vaginal discharge. It is likely to be inflammation of the reproductive organs or urinary system, and abnormal vaginal discharge is common in the following situations.
Postmenstrual leukorrhea may be non inflammatory leukorrhea:
After using estrogen drugs, vaginal discharge has stickiness and quantity.
2. Women of childbearing age have too little vaginal discharge, which cannot meet their physiological needs, making them often feel dry and uncomfortable in the external genitalia. This is often caused by decreased ovarian function and insufficient secretion of sex hormones, which is also a pathological condition. After menstruation, it can cause vaginal bleeding.
3. Mental stimulation increases secretion from the external genitalia, vagina, and cervix, making it colorless and transparent.
4. Leucorrhea is milky white water like, which can occur in pelvic tumors, uterine flexion, chronic systemic diseases (heart failure, diabetes, anemia, tuberculosis, etc.), This is caused by pelvic and uterine congestion and an increase in vaginal secretions.
Why does vaginal discharge carry blood?
Leucorrhea is a mirror of women's health. Normal vaginal discharge should be milky white or colorless and transparent, with a slight fishy or odorless odor. The levels of estrogen and progesterone in its secretion and texture receptors vary depending on the menstrual cycle.
Generally speaking, there is less vaginal discharge after menstruation; Before ovulation, due to the increase in estrogen levels in the body, cervical glandular epithelial cells proliferate, cervical mucus secretion increases, and sodium chloride content increases, which can absorb more water, increase the appearance of vaginal discharge, thin, colored, and egg white during ovulation, and can stretch long filaments; After ovulation, estrogen levels decrease and progesterone levels increase, inhibiting cervical mucus secretion and reducing the content of sodium chloride in mucus, resulting in thick, milky white vaginal discharge, poor ductility, and easy breakage during wire drawing.
During honeymoons and frequent sexual activity, vaginal discharge will increase; Women of childbearing age may experience an increase in vaginal discharge during pregnancy and taking oral contraceptives; Menopausal women have sparse secretion of vaginal discharge. These are all normal.
Leucorrhea has two physiological and pathological conditions. Generally speaking, some women may experience ovulation bleeding during the ovulation period, which is a small amount of bleeding between two normal menstrual periods and may be accompanied by varying degrees of minor abdominal pain. This is physiological. If the symptoms are mild, do not require treatment, have a large amount of bleeding, or affect fertility.
