What general tests are usually required for abnormal leukorrhea?

Patient's question:

Recently, my leukorrhea has appeared with many abnormal symptoms again. The leukorrhea has become particularly abundant, and sometimes it also has a strange odor. I want to go to the hospital for a check-up. Is it necessary to carefully examine HPV for abnormal leukorrhea?

Doctor's answer:

HPV is the human papillomavirus. Once a woman is reinfected with the human papillomavirus, it is very likely to cause interference with her health, and it may also lead to an increase in vaginal discharge. However, there are many reasons that can cause an increase in vaginal discharge, the most common being various gynecological inflammatory conditions. Therefore, it is best to first undergo a thorough examination for gynecological inflammation. If it is not caused by gynecological inflammation, then proceed with an HPV examination.
