What should I do if my vaginal discharge turns yellow?

Leucorrhea is a very common secretion among women, but some women may find that their leucorrhea turns yellow. The yellowing of leucorrhea is not a normal phenomenon and may be caused by some disease. When the leucorrhea turns yellow, treatment must be sought as soon as possible. However, many women have never encountered this situation before and don’t know what to do.

Some women get nervous when they find that their leucorrhea is abnormal. In fact, in addition to gynecological diseases, there are some other problems that can cause leucorrhea to turn yellow:

Caused by getting angry: Bad habits such as staying up late can easily cause women to get angry. Getting angry in the body may cause the leucorrhea to turn yellow. If the leucorrhea is yellow and has an odor, but there are no other symptoms, it is most likely caused by getting angry.

Improper dressing: Fashionable women like to wear tight pants, leggings or tights, which will cause the humidity and temperature of the vagina to increase, thereby promoting the growth of mold and affecting the yellowing of leucorrhea.

Spleen deficiency and damp-heat: Yellow leucorrhea may also be caused by spleen deficiency. Spleen deficiency will cause damp-heat to descend, and the leucorrhea will appear white or yellow and continuous. Women with spleen deficiency may also have yellow complexion, loss of appetite, cold limbs and lower abdomen, etc.

What should I do if my leucorrhea turns yellow?

Self-regulation: drink more water, clean the local area, keep the local area clean, avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, and observe the changes in the condition.

Confirmatory examination: If there is no trend of improvement through self-regulation, then the patient needs to go to the hospital for a check-up. It is crucial to determine the cause and then provide symptomatic treatment.

If your leucorrhea turns yellow, you must go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible, because this situation is mostly caused by inflammation in your body. Therefore, everyone must pay more attention to their endocrine problems in normal times, and go to the hospital as soon as possible if any abnormal symptoms are found in the body.
