What is the reason for blood in leucorrhea?

Abnormal leucorrhea is often a symptom of gynecological diseases. That is to say, if leucorrhea is abnormal, it means that you may be suffering from some gynecological disease. Leucorrhea is a secretion from the female body that is discharged from the vagina. It is normally a white, transparent liquid.

Mid-month bleeding is considered ovulation bleeding. Ovulation bleeding occurs when the ovulation of the follicle causes fluctuations in hormone levels in the body, leading to the shedding of the endometrium and causing bleeding. The amount is usually small and not easy to detect. In this case, a gynecological examination is required to rule out inflammation, endometrial lesions, tumors, etc. Generally, no treatment is required, and symptomatic treatment is only required when bleeding is heavy. In a normal woman's menstrual cycle, the 12th to 14th day is the date of ovulation. At this time, due to the rupture of the follicle and the fluctuation of estrogen, the vascular permeability changes and red blood cells leak out of the blood vessels, causing a small amount of vaginal bleeding. This is the ovulation bleeding phenomenon.

Bloody leucorrhea, or leucorrhea mixed with blood, should alert you to the possibility of malignant tumors such as cervical cancer and endometrial cancer.

There are two types of bloody vaginal discharge: physiological and pathological. Generally speaking, some women will experience ovulation bleeding during their ovulation period, also known as mid-menstrual bleeding, which refers to a small amount of bleeding between two normal menstrual periods, which may be accompanied by varying degrees of lower abdominal pain. If the symptoms are mild, no treatment is needed. If the bleeding is heavy or affects fertility, medication can be used for treatment.

(6) Submucosal uterine fibroids. (7) Endometrial cancer. In addition, sometimes due to the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive ring, there may be some blood mixed in the leucorrhea. You can go to the hospital for a check-up to see if it is normal ovulation bleeding or bleeding caused by a disease.

There are generally two reasons for the presence of blood in leucorrhea. One is gynecological disease, which is also the most common. The other is infertility.
