Abnormal leucorrhea indicates that there is something wrong with the health of women, and the sooner the treatment, the better.

Why is there a large piece of vaginal discharge?

If a large amount of vaginal discharge falls out, it means that the discharge is too much. It is very likely that you have gynecological inflammation. It is crucial to go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

8 symptoms of leucorrhea must be treated

1. Gray, homogeneous leucorrhea with a fishy smell: common in bacterial vaginosis.

2. Curd-like leucorrhea: It is a characteristic of candidal vaginitis, often accompanied by severe vulvar itching or burning pain.

3. Tofu-like leucorrhea: It is mostly unique to candidal vaginitis. The vulva and vaginal walls are often covered with a layer of white film-like substance. After wiping, 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.

4. Bloody leucorrhea: If there is blood mixed in the leucorrhea, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, cervical polyps or submucosal fibroids should be considered. Insertion of an intrauterine device can also cause bloody leucorrhea.

5. Watery leucorrhea: Continuous discharge of watery leucorrhea like rice washing water with a pungent odor is generally caused by advanced cervical cancer, vaginal cancer, or submucosal fibroids with infection. If you have intermittent discharge of yellow or red watery vaginal discharge, you should be aware of the possibility of fallopian tube cancer.

6. Colorless, transparent, sticky leucorrhea: It is egg white-like and similar in properties to the mucus secreted by the cervical glands during ovulation, but the amount is significantly increased. Generally, the possibility of chronic endocervicitis, ovarian dysfunction, vaginal adenosis, or well-differentiated cervical adenocarcinoma should be considered.

7. Purulent leucorrhea: yellow or yellow-green in color, sticky, and often smelly. It can be caused by acute vaginitis, cervicitis, and endocervicitis caused by bacteria such as Trichomonas or gonococci. Pyometra, cervical cancer, vaginal cancer or foreign objects retained in the vagina can also cause pus-like leucorrhea.

8. Foamy leucorrhea: If you have grayish white or grayish yellow foamy leucorrhea with a sour odor after bathing in a public bath or using a public bath towel or bathtub, you should consider whether you have been infected with Trichomonas vaginitis.
