Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and cold drafts. Could you please tell me what could be causing the slight blood in my discharge?Doctor's answer:
Bleeding mixed with leukorrhea should be considered for conditions such as cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, cervical polyps, or submucosal fibroids. The insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD) can also cause bloody leukorrhea. Once leukorrhea with blood is detected, especially if it contains blood streaks after intercourse, it is important to be vigilant about the possibility of a malignant tumor in the reproductive organs. It is recommended to visit a hospital for examination to confirm the diagnosis and receive targeted treatment. The occurrence of abnormal leukorrhea not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoiding spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
