Why does leucorrhea have a fishy smell after abortion?

With the gradual liberation of sexual ideas and the lack of sex education, many young people have unexpected pregnancies due to inadequate contraceptive measures. Therefore, more and more people are having abortions. The abortion process may go smoothly, but many people do find that their leucorrhea will have a fishy smell after the abortion. What is going on? Let’s take a closer look at this reason.

When you find that your vaginal discharge has an odor after an abortion, you should first check whether there is a possibility of infection. You should understand that if your vaginal discharge has an odor after an abortion, there must be something wrong. Normal vaginal discharge has no odor. It may also be that the woman herself has a disease that causes abnormal vaginal discharge. If there is abnormal leucorrhea, the first thing to consider is the symptoms of gynecological diseases such as fungal infection, uterine inflammation, cervical disease, and Trichomonas infection.

1. Fungal infection:

The vaginal discharge is usually yellow or white in color, and most of the time it is sticky. This is the typical case of tofu-like discharge, and some are curd-like.

2. Uterine inflammation, pelvic inflammatory disease:

This will cause the vaginal discharge to increase in volume, become yellower in color, and become thinner in texture. Many women also experience abdominal pain.

3. Cervical disease:

Usually, leucorrhea has no odor, but is yellowish in color and sticky like pus.

4. Trichomonas infection:

The leucorrhea has a strong odor and is yellow in color, foamy and pus-like, and some are like rice washing water.

Therefore, in order to avoid the occurrence of these abnormal leucorrhea and prevent abortion from causing secondary harm to women, every woman should take good care of her personal hygiene, and rest quietly for a few days after the abortion, do not exercise excessively, and wash her genitals every day. Only in this way can the probability of abnormal leucorrhea be reduced.
