Leucorrhea is very thin white liquid

Leucorrhea reflects the physical problems of female friends. If there is a health problem, it may cause abnormal leucorrhea. Some leucorrhea may be very thin and white liquid may flow out. These liquids may smell unpleasant. Over time, the leucorrhea will gradually increase and thicken. These are very common reactions and require detailed treatment according to the specific situation.

Leucorrhea is a female vaginal discharge, which is a mixture of vaginal mucosal exudates, cervical canal and endometrial gland secretions. Its formation is related to the action of estrogen. Under normal circumstances, the quality and quantity of leucorrhea changes with the menstrual cycle. After the menstruation is over, the leucorrhea is less in amount, white in color and in a paste form. In the middle of the menstrual cycle when the ovaries are about to ovulate, due to the vigorous secretion of the cervical glands, the leucorrhea increases and becomes transparent, slightly sticky, and egg white-like. 2 to 3 days after ovulation, the leucorrhea becomes turbid, thick and sticky but with less amount. Before and after menstruation, due to pelvic congestion, vaginal mucosal exudate increases and leucorrhea often increases.

Colorless, transparent, sticky leucorrhea: Similar to egg white, or slightly turbid, but except for increased leucorrhea, there are rarely other symptoms. This type of leucorrhea is more common in chronic cervicitis, endocervicitis and after the use of estrogen.

Foamy leucorrhea: After taking a bath in a public bath or using a public bath towel or bathtub, grayish white or grayish yellowish foamy leucorrhea with a sour odor should be considered as a possible cause of Trichomonas vaginitis.

Tofu-like leucorrhea: unique to candidal vaginitis. The vulva and vaginal walls are often covered with a layer of white film-like substance. After rubbing, the red and swollen mucosal surface is exposed, which is easily infected by fungi and is often accompanied by vulvar itching and burning pain. Especially people with diabetes or pregnant women should think about this, because pregnant women and people with diabetes have poor physical condition and low immunity, which makes them prone to fungal infections.

Yellow (purulent) leucorrhea: mostly caused by bacterial infection. Gonorrhea, tuberculosis bacteria, etc. may be the cause of the disease, and Treponema pallidum can also cause purulent infection of the vagina. When a patient discharges a large amount of leucorrhea with a special odor from the vagina, one should suspect whether there is a foreign body in the vagina, which may cause an increase in leucorrhea and a serious infection.

Watery leucorrhea: In the early stages of malignant tumors or uterine cancer, fallopian tube cancer, etc., there will be an increase in leucorrhea.

Bloody leucorrhea: leucorrhea mixed with blood.

The appearance of this type of leucorrhea should alert you to the possibility of malignant tumors, such as cervical cancer, uterine cancer, vaginal tumors, etc. This leucorrhea may also occur in some benign lesions, such as senile vaginitis, cervical erosion, etc.

Yellow mucous leucorrhea: seen in cervical erosion, chronic cervicitis, etc., it is caused by mild infection.

White mucous leucorrhea: The properties are the same as normal, but the amount is increased. This type of leucorrhea is seen after the use of estrogen or when the pelvic cavity is congested. It is caused by increased secretion of cervical glands and vaginal mucosa.
