Leukoplakia with brownish-red color is a sexually transmitted disease?

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 coldness. Is brownish-red discharge a sexually transmitted disease?

Doctor's answer:

Not necessarily. Bloody leukorrhea can occur before or after menstruation, during ovulation, or as a precursor to miscarriage after pregnancy. It can also be caused by conditions such as vaginitis, cervical erosion, cervical polyps, endometrial lesions, tumors, etc. It is likely that the cause is cervical inflammation. Cervical inflammation is a common gynecological infection associated with sexual transmission, unclean external factors, and weakened immunity. It is recommended to use potassium permanganate solution or Jieryin for cleaning, and to treat the vagina with chlorhexidine suppositories or ciprofloxacin suppositories. If necessary, it is advisable to undergo medical examinations such as ultrasound and leukorrhea tests to confirm and treat the condition.
