Abnormal vaginal discharge and itching are usually not directly related to pregnancy, but they may be signs of gynecological diseases and need to be checked by a doctor in time. The causes of abnormal vaginal discharge and itching include infection, hormonal changes or inflammation, and the treatment methods include medication, lifestyle adjustment and diet conditioning. 1. Infection: Bacterial vaginitis, candidal vaginitis or trichomonas vaginitis are common causes. Bacterial vaginitis may be caused by an imbalance of vaginal flora, candidal vaginitis is often related to candida infection, and trichomonas vaginitis is sexually transmitted. Treatments include the use of antibiotics (such as metronidazole), antifungal drugs (such as fluconazole) or antiparasitic drugs (such as metronidazole). 2. Hormonal changes: Pregnancy, menstrual cycle or menopause may cause fluctuations in hormone levels, affecting the secretion of vaginal discharge. During pregnancy, increased estrogen levels may cause increased vaginal discharge, but it is usually not accompanied by itching. If itching is obvious, infection or other diseases should be ruled out. Treatment methods include topical use of hormone drugs (such as hydrocortisone ointment) or adjusting lifestyle habits. 3. Inflammation: Inflammatory diseases such as cervicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease may also cause abnormal vaginal discharge and itching. Cervicitis is mostly caused by infection, and pelvic inflammatory disease may be related to sexually transmitted diseases or surgical complications. Treatments include the use of antibiotics (such as azithromycin), anti-inflammatory drugs (such as ibuprofen), or physical therapy (such as hot compresses). 4. Adjust your lifestyle: Keep your vulva clean and dry, and avoid using irritating lotions or soaps. Choose cotton underwear and avoid tight clothing. Change sanitary napkins or panty liners regularly and avoid using them for long periods of time. 5. Diet adjustment: Increase the intake of foods rich in probiotics (such as yogurt and fermented foods) to help maintain the balance of vaginal flora. Reduce the intake of high-sugar foods to avoid promoting mold growth. Drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated. Although abnormal vaginal discharge and itching are not directly related to pregnancy, they may be signs of gynecological diseases. It is key to seek medical attention in time, identify the cause and take targeted treatment. At the same time, adjusting lifestyle and diet structure can help relieve symptoms and prevent recurrence. |
