Patient's question:
Hello: The question I want to ask is that I have had an IUD for over a year, and my menstruation is still normal, but after each period, there is a lot of leukorrhea, and the color of the leukorrhea is slightly yellow. Then I have lower abdominal pain, sometimes it hurts so much that I feel a bit nauseous, and the external genitalia itch. Can you tell me what these symptoms are and if I can regulate them with traditional Chinese medicine? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
Based on your condition, it is likely that the increased discharge with yellow color is caused by cervical inflammation. It is recommended to rest actively and consider a follow-up colposcopy examination after the menstrual period is clean if necessary, for symptomatic treatment. Avoid sexual activity in the short term. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects women's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness of the perineal skin in daily life.
