Women can judge pelvic inflammatory disease through leucorrhea

It is generally difficult for women to judge the symptoms of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease by themselves, because they are not very obvious and can be easily confused with the symptoms of other diseases. Without clear disease signals, it is easy for women to delay treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease. In fact, women can judge whether they are infected with pelvic inflammatory disease by observing their leucorrhea. Pelvic inflammatory disease can cause abnormal changes in leucorrhea, which will leave evidence on underwear. As long as you pay attention to the leucorrhea on the underwear, you can find pelvic inflammatory disease.

Leucorrhea is a sticky white liquid that flows out of the vagina. It is a mixture of secretions from the Bartholin's glands, cervical glands, endometrial secretions, vaginal mucosal exudates, and exfoliated vaginal epithelial cells. Leucorrhea contains lactobacilli, lysozyme, and antibodies, so it has the effect of inhibiting bacterial growth. When the amount, color, and smell of leucorrhea change, it indicates gynecological inflammation.

The systemic symptoms of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease are mostly not obvious, but the leucorrhea will increase significantly, and appear as milky curds or tofu dregs, pus and other symptoms, which are all signs of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.

Purulent leucorrhea, yellow or yellow-green, sticky, and smelly, generally indicates that bacteria such as Trichomonas or gonococci have caused pelvic inflammatory disease. The reason why leucorrhea is brown before menstruation can also indicate pelvic inflammatory disease. Leucorrhea that is white and paste-like, or curd-like, or like tofu dregs, often indicates fungal infection; leucorrhea that is yellow or yellow-green and thin and purulent is mostly a purulent bacterial infection.

It is only a rough method for women to self-diagnose pelvic inflammatory disease by measuring leucorrhea. If they find abnormal leucorrhea, they should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time. They must not take medicine privately to avoid adverse consequences.
