What is the reason for the sour smell of leucorrhea

As women, we all know that secretions are a basis for judging whether the urinary system is healthy. Normal leucorrhea for women should be milky white or colorless and transparent, with a little fishy smell or no odor. If the secretions are abnormal, especially if they smell fishy or sour, it is necessary to consider that there may be urinary system diseases. What is the reason for the increase in leucorrhea and the sour smell?

If a woman is found to have an increase in leucorrhea with a sour and smelly odor, she should consider bacterial vaginitis caused by microbial invasion, because one of the symptoms of bacterial vaginitis is an increase in the amount of secretions with a sour and smelly odor, and it is also accompanied by symptoms of vulvar itching and burning sensation. In order to diagnose the cause as soon as possible, it is recommended that women go to the hospital for a gynecological examination and routine leucorrhea examination as soon as possible. Once diagnosed, they should cooperate closely with the doctor's treatment.

Bacterial vaginitis is mainly treated with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs. The treatment method is selected according to the severity of the patient's condition. For patients with mild conditions, local drug treatment is mostly used. Patients are asked to apply plasters on the private parts. Plasters can also be applied deep in the vagina or suppositories can be inserted for treatment. For patients with more serious conditions, systemic drug treatment is needed, and support and immunotherapy are given at the same time. In order to prevent cross-infection, sexual partners also need to be treated simultaneously.

In addition to treatment, patients should maintain daily cleaning of the private parts. It is best to wash them with warm water in the morning, noon and evening, keep the private parts in a relatively dry environment to reduce the growth of bacteria and prevent the condition from worsening. Pay attention to avoid scratching, change underwear frequently, and it is best to clean underwear separately. After washing, dry them in the sun for sterilization. The diet should be based on light and easily digestible foods, and do not eat spicy and irritating foods.
