Doctor's answer:
Hello, spleen deficiency can lead to increased leukorrhea. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine believes that excessive leukorrhea is related to dampness. The spleen is responsible for transporting and transforming body fluids, so spleen deficiency can cause an excess of dampness in the body, resulting in increased leukorrhea. It is recommended to seek treatment from a local TCM department for syndrome differentiation.The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects the patient's health but also leads to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination at the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
