Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Could you please tell me if it's okay to eat honey, rice vinegar, and raisins during my period?Doctor's answer:
Hello, honey has a good cosmetic effect on women, and raisins can also be eaten. It's best to consume them after menstruation. Rice vinegar can also be eaten.Leukorrhea with blood streaks can be either physiological or pathological. Generally, some women experience ovulatory bleeding during ovulation, which is also known as mid-cycle bleeding. This refers to light bleeding between two normal menstrual periods and may be accompanied by varying degrees of mild abdominal pain. If the symptoms are mild, no treatment is needed. However, if the bleeding is heavy or affects fertility, medication can be used.
However, bloody leukorrhea may also indicate the following conditions:
(1) Cervical polyps.
(2) Acute vaginitis.
(3) Severe cervical erosion.
(4) Senile vaginitis.
(5) Cervical cancer.
(6) Submucosal uterine fibroids.
(7) Endometrial cancer.
Additionally, sometimes the presence of an intrauterine device (IUD) can cause blood streaks in leukorrhea. Leukorrhea with an odor is mainly caused by inflammation. It is recommended to seek medical attention early and avoid self-medication to prevent delaying the diagnosis.
