What are the reasons for increased leukorrhea after postpartum?

Patient's question:

I have more leukorrhea after my period ended. My period just ended two days ago, and yesterday and today, my leukorrhea has been a bit more than usual. The color is also a bit abnormal. As soon as I exercise a little, leukorrhea flows out, and I have to change my underwear every hour. What are the reasons for increased leukorrhea after the period?

Doctor's answer:

After menstruation, if there is a continuous increase in leukorrhea, it may be related to secretions during the ovulation period, or it could be caused by inflammation. It is recommended that you rinse the groin area with warm water. If the leukorrhea is excessive, a thorough examination should be conducted to determine if it is caused by vaginitis or cervicitis. You can use some topical solutions to rinse the secretions. If there is inflammation, it is best to combine it with intravaginal medication treatment. For patients with increased leukorrhea, in addition to immediate treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care. For example, pay more attention to personal hygiene and undergo regular follow-up examinations during medication.
