Is it true that green vaginal discharge may be caused by inflammation?

After getting angry, the human body will undergo a series of changes. If a woman gets a sore throat during her menstrual period, the color and state of her leucorrhea will change accordingly. Firstly, because the sore throat causes increased dampness and heat in the body, the leucorrhea will become thicker and like snot. It is also possible that the leucorrhea will turn green. When the human body temperature rises, the bacteria in the body will increase accordingly. If an infection occurs, the leucorrhea will change color accordingly.

What is the reason for the green vaginal discharge?

01Why does the leucorrhea turn green? It may be caused by cervical disease. There are two common cervical diseases, namely cervicitis and cervical erosion.

What to do if your vaginal discharge turns green

1. Go to the hospital for treatment

When you find that your leucorrhea has turned green, no matter what your health condition is, it is recommended that you go to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital and let the doctor perform a gynecological examination, check the vaginal secretions, and do bacterial culture if necessary. For your own health, you should go to a qualified hospital for treatment.

2. Drug treatment

After the test results come out, medication should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor. There are oral medications and topical medications. These must be done under the doctor's orders and you cannot take the medicine at will. Topical medications are usually taken before bedtime, allowing the drug to stay longer and thus achieve the therapeutic effect.

3. Pay attention to some drug reactions

When taking metronidazole orally to treat trichomoniasis, because the drug is particularly bitter, you should prepare more water when taking the medicine to dilute the bitterness. After taking it, there will be some gastrointestinal reactions, such as nausea and vomiting. If you experience any reactions such as rash or headache, contact your doctor immediately so that you can stop taking the medication.

4. Pay attention to personal hygiene

When the leucorrhea is green, while taking medication for treatment, you should also pay attention to keeping the vulva clean and dry. Avoid scratching when your vulva is itchy, which can cause skin damage. During the treatment period, couples are prohibited from having sex, and underwear should be made of cotton and changed frequently.

5. Pay attention to regular inspections

Trichomonas vaginitis often recurs after menstruation. Therefore, when the vaginal secretion is negative for Trichomonas after treatment, the leucorrhea should still be checked after the menstruation is over. It is not cured until three consecutive tests are negative.
