pH value of vaginal discharge 5

When many women have a gynecological examination, one necessary examination is the routine examination of leucorrhea. Routine examination of leucorrhea is essential in the examination of many diseases, so after completing the routine examination of leucorrhea, you must pay attention to the pH value of leucorrhea. If the pH value of leucorrhea exceeds the normal range, you need to pay attention to whether it is affected by inflammation or other diseases. So what is the reason for the pH value of vaginal discharge being 5?

1. The pH value of leucorrhea is to check the pH, that is, the acidity and alkalinity of vaginal secretions. It is a basic leucorrhea examination item. When the pH is greater than 5-6, it indicates trichomoniasis or bacterial vaginosis. If you do some leucorrhea tests and find that the pH value of the leucorrhea reaches 5.0, it generally means that you have mild bacterial vaginitis. You must pay attention to your cleanliness. Generally speaking, it is because the acid-base environment in the vagina is destroyed, causing the vagina's immune ability to decrease, which will cause vaginal inflammation.

2. Basically all women will produce leucorrhea, which is a vaginal secretion. The shape and smell of the leucorrhea can be used to distinguish some of the health conditions of your body. During the examination, the pH value of the leucorrhea will also be tested. Sometimes, if the test result is greater than 4.4, there may be some problems.

3. Leucorrhea can be normal or pathological. As for the pathological nature, it is generally a reproductive tract inflammation, and in severe cases, cancer may occur. At this time, the amount of leucorrhea is very large, and the properties will change. If it is normal physiological leucorrhea, the color of the leucorrhea is white and paste-like, or egg white-like, a little sticky without too much fishy smell, and the amount of leucorrhea at this time is relatively small. There is no disease, and it is not reasonable to have so much leucorrhea. Moreover, leucorrhea has the function of vaginal lubrication for women, which can help improve the quality of sexual life.
