Abnormal leucorrhea in adolescent gynecology

Abnormal vaginal discharge in adolescent girls may be related to hormone fluctuations, lifestyle habits or infection. It is necessary to determine whether medical treatment is needed based on the specific situation. Leucorrhea is a "barometer" of the health of the female reproductive system. Under normal circumstances, it is transparent or milky white, has no odor, and is moderate in amount. Due to unstable hormone levels in adolescent girls, the amount of vaginal discharge may increase, but if there is a significant change in color, odor or texture, you need to be vigilant.

There are many manifestations of abnormal leucorrhea, such as yellow or green color, thick or tofu-like texture, accompanied by odor or itching. These symptoms may indicate vaginitis, cervicitis or other gynecological problems. The reproductive system of adolescent girls is not yet fully mature, and their immunity is relatively weak, making them susceptible to bacterial, fungal or parasitic infections. Bad living habits, such as wearing tight pants and using unclean sanitary products, may also lead to abnormal leucorrhea.

If abnormal vaginal discharge is accompanied by obvious discomfort, such as vulvar itching, burning sensation, or lower abdominal pain, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time and clarify the cause through gynecological examination and laboratory tests. The doctor will prescribe medication or suggest adjusting lifestyle habits according to the specific situation. For mild abnormal vaginal discharge, it can be alleviated by improving personal hygiene habits, such as washing the vulva with warm water every day, avoiding the use of irritating lotions; choosing cotton underwear with good breathability and changing it frequently; paying attention to changing sanitary napkins in time during menstruation and avoiding the use of sanitary pads for a long time.

The mental health of adolescent girls is equally important. There is no need to be overly anxious when facing abnormal vaginal discharge. Communicate with parents or doctors in a timely manner and respond scientifically, which is the key.
