Patient's question:
It's been about a week now, and my leukorrhea has been yellow-green, and the amount is also particularly large, with a strong odor, which makes me very troubled. Please ask: How can leukorrhea odor be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Normal leukorrhea is colorless, translucent, or creamy white mucus-like substance, acidic with a pH of 4-5, odorless, measured between 0.5 to 1CL. It is generally not expelled outside the body and primarily serves as a lubricant for the vagina and external genitalia. If the leukorrhea volume exceeds the normal range, or if changes occur in color, consistency, and odor, it may indicate inflammation. It is recommended to seek medical examination. Maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia in daily life. Avoid scratching, hot water washing, and using soap. For infections, use potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths. Underwear should be breathable and loose-fitting. Avoid alcohol and spicy or allergenic foods.Leukorrhea with a bad odor is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During medication, women should pay attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene!
