What is leucorrhea like? What should leucorrhea pay attention to?
1, what is leucorrhea?
After puberty, with the improvement of ovarian function, there will be milky white or transparent liquid flowing from female private parts, which is composed of secretions from vestibular glands, cervical glands and endometrium, exudates from female private parts mucosa and epithelial cells shed from female private parts. It can keep the mucous membrane of female private parts moist and facilitate sexual life.
Leucorrhea contains lactic acid bacteria, lysozyme and antibodies, so it can inhibit the growth of bacteria. During sexual intercourse, leucorrhea will increase, which will lubricate women's private parts and be beneficial to sexual life.
2. What is a normal leucorrhea?
Normal leucorrhea should be milky white or colorless and transparent, slightly fishy or tasteless; Its secretion and texture are influenced by the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body and change periodically with the menstrual cycle.
The amount of leucorrhea varies from person to person. If you are an adult woman, there is a little secretion on your underwear, don't worry. During pregnancy or ovulation and sexual stimulation, secretion will increase.
3. What is abnormal leucorrhea like?
Abnormal leucorrhea usually has one or more changes in color, quantity, taste and quality. In addition to physiological leucorrhea abnormalities such as menstrual period or ovulation during pregnancy, it is usually a precursor to gynecological diseases.
There are five common pathological leucorrhea:
1. Colorless pasty leucorrhea: leucorrhea is mushy and sticky, and often sticks to underwear. Patients have no other symptoms except backache, which is more common in chronic cervicitis and cervicitis. In addition, women who use estrogen preparations more can also have this kind of leucorrhea.
2. Bean dregs-like leucorrhea: a large amount of leucorrhea, like bean dregs-like floc, often accompanied by itching of female private parts. This kind of leucorrhea is mostly caused by mold infection or diabetes in female private parts.
3. Foamy leucorrhea: leucorrhea is foamy, with a large amount, accompanied by itching of vulva and female private parts. If the vaginal discharge smear of female private parts is detected, trichomonas mobilis can be found. This is because the bath water is not clean when taking a bath, pool bath or sitz bath, and it is infected with trichomonas. This disease is often caused by itching and scratching of female private parts, which leads to purulent and lovely staining, and leucorrhea turns into yellow pus foam.
4. Purulent leucorrhea: The leucorrhea is yellow or green pus-like, mostly accompanied by general weakness, low fever and other symptoms, probably suffering from acute female private parts or cervicitis. Suppurative infection suggests bacterial infection, so you should seek medical attention in time.
5. Water-like leucorrhea: leucorrhea is clear as water, often soaked through underwear and smelly, which is mostly a sign of tubal tumor.
4. What should I pay attention to when I have leucorrhea?
Adolescent reproductive organs develop vigorously, and the production of leucorrhea also increases. In addition, in hot weather, physical activity and sexual impulse, the secretion of these liquids will also increase, and sometimes it may flow out. Therefore, we should pay attention to keeping the private parts of women clean and hygienic, and often wash the vulva with warm water. Even if the amount of leucorrhea is not too much at ordinary times, the vulva should be cleaned frequently, which can reduce the evil growth and invasion of germs and effectively prevent gynecological diseases.
5. How to avoid more leucorrhea?
1, it is best not to take a bath, especially in public baths, which is easy to cross infection. For women, the cleanest way to take a bath is to get caught in the rain, but every time you clean the vulva, it is best not to use lotion, just use water, otherwise it will easily destroy the environment of women's private parts and lead to bacterial growth.
2. Wash underwear separately. Female friends' underwear must be washed by hand, preferably with running water, and never mixed with socks, coats and trousers, especially socks. Many people have beriberi, which is a fungal infection, especially easy to infect genitals and cause gynecological inflammation.
3, wearing pure cotton underwear, many girls belong to underwear control, like all kinds of small underwear, but for girls, especially women's private parts, it is best to be pure cotton, and women's lower body is wet. Underwear made of pure cotton has good water absorption, while underwear made of other materials will make women cute and uncomfortable. If you are in a humid environment for a long time, it is easy to breed bacteria and easily cause gynecological diseases.
4. Eat less cold food. If a girl suffers from palace cold or body cold, it is easy to have more leucorrhea. Many girls like to eat cold drinks, which is harmful to women. It's ok to eat occasionally in hot summer, but you can't eat more. As a girl, you should know how to protect yourself and cherish yourself.
