Xiao Wang is 22 years old this year. Recently, she often feels itchy in private parts. Although she changes her underwear every day, there is always yellow, viscous substance on her underwear. However, this did not arouse Xiao Wang's alertness, nor did he seek medical treatment for screening.
Because Xiao Wang firmly believes that he has never had a boyfriend or had sex, so he will naturally not have gynecological diseases. It may be that the diet is unhealthy recently or the weather changes have affected endocrine , so you don’t have to go to the hospital for examination.
However, within a few days, Xiao Wang's symptoms became more and more serious, with obvious unpleasant odors in his private parts and unbearable itching. At this time, Xiao Wang finally realized that there was indeed a problem with her body, but she was ashamed to go to the hospital for examination. In the end, under the persuasion of her mother, Xiao Wang went to the local hospital for gynecology for examination and was diagnosed with trichomonas vaginitis .
Trichomonas vaginitis is mainly transmitted through sexual channels, but intimate contact with and indirect contact with can also cause Trichomonas transmission and infection. The worse the immune function, the more likely it is to develop the disease after infection.
In fact, in real life, it is not just Xiao Wang. Many girls have wrong interpretations of gynecological diseases, believing that only if you have sexual behavior or sexual disorders can you suffer from gynecological diseases. But this is not the case. The reproductive structure of women is actually very complex. Women who do not have sex may also have infectious gynecological diseases.
1. Gynecological diseases are related to sexuality, but sexuality is not the only factor
Gynecological diseases are a general term for common diseases of the female reproductive system. The main types of gynecological diseases include vulvar diseases, vaginal diseases, uterine diseases, fallopian tubes and ovarian diseases , etc. The most common one is infectious diseases, which are caused by infections of various pathogens.
The private structure of women is quite special. vaginal opening is in an open state and is close to urethra and anal . Therefore, it is easily affected by residual contamination in urine and feces, and then a large number of bacteria are grown. Moreover, secretions will be produced in women's private parts. The skin of private parts is very delicate, with many wrinkles, a large number of sweat glands are distributed, and it is not breathable. This provides conditions for the breeding of pathogen .
There are a large number of lactobacillus in the vagina. It is precisely because of the checks and balances between bacteria, the vagina continues to be in an acidic environment and will not allow harmful bacteria to grow in large quantities. However, when the local resistance decreases , some bacteria and pathogens will take advantage of the situation, eventually causing infectious diseases, such as vaginitis is one of them.
The special structure of female bodies has determined the characteristics of reproductive organs being easily invaded by various pathogens. However, if women do not pay attention to private hygiene in their daily lives, such as not changing their underwear frequently, not changing sanitary napkins in time, masturbating during menstruation, inadequate hygiene during menstruation, unclear wiping after urination or incorrect wiping method, it may cause infection.
The key to mention here is " masturbation ". Masturbation is indeed beneficial to the body and mind. However, there are a lot of bacteria on the hands, and the structure of women's private parts is very special. If you do not clean your hands thoroughly and masturbate repeatedly, it is easy to cause private parts infection. This non-real sexual behavior is also one of the main factors for women to develop gynecological diseases.
. After gynecological disease appears, it will affect secretion in private parts. In clinical opinion, private secretions are actually a barometer of the health of female reproductive organs . As long as there are abnormal changes in private secretions, it may be a signal of the arrival of the disease.
2. What exactly is secretions in private parts and what is their relationship with diseases?
Private secretions refer to female vaginal secretions . Since the woman enters puberty, private secretions will change with the menstrual cycle. The main composition of secretions is the exudates of the genital mucosa, such as vaginal mucosa exudates, which are one of them.These tissues secrete mucus under estrogen stimulation, and mix together to form vaginal secretions.
is also affected by estrogen, so vaginal secretions will change with the menstrual cycle, that is, physiological secretions. At the end of the menstrual cycle, there is less secretion in the private parts, showing a white paste of and a faint fishy smell.
In the middle stage of the menstrual cycle, since the egg is about to be discharged, the secretion of the cervical glands will become more and more vigorous. The secretions in private parts can increase as a result. Egg white silk-like secretions are the most common manifestations of during ovulation. After ovulation, the secretions will gradually become turbid and appear milky white.
Private secretion is not useless. It is to keep the vagina in a relatively wet state, reduce friction between the posterior walls of the vagina, and protect the delicate tissues of the vagina from harm. At the same time, the secretions also play a lubricating role, which can improve the quality of sex and make sex life smoother.
It is precisely because the secretions in the private parts come from vaginal mucosa, cervical canal, endometrium gland . After gynecological diseases occur, they will affect the secretions, resulting in changes in the color, smell and texture of the secretions. For example, when underwear shows abnormal yellow secretions and emits an unpleasant odor, it may be related to gynecological disease .
3. Is the yellow secretion on the underwear caused by gynecological diseases?
After taking off the underwear, there is a clear yellow color on the lining. First of all, you must determine whether it is a secretion. Because the structure of women's private parts is complex, urethra , vagina and anus are adjacent to each other, the yellow substances that appear on the underwear may be caused by residual urine or stool, and may not be vaginal secretion .
If you have done a sufficient cleaning after each urination and defecation, make sure there are no residues. But the private parts include yellow secretion , and there is a odor. You need to be wary of the following three situations of :
, Trichomonas vaginitis
Trichomonas vaginitis is caused by Trichomonas infection . There are three types of Trichomonas parasitized in the human body, namely Trichomonas vaginalis, Trichomonas human Trichomonas and Trichomonas . They are parasitized in different parts and the symptoms of infection are also different. Trichomonas vaginitis is caused by Trichomonas vaginal infection. Its transmission channels include three major categories: sex, intimate contact and indirect transmission, among which sex is the main transmission channel.
Most patients with trichomonas vaginitis have no symptoms. After symptoms appear, they show different degrees of burning itchy sensation in private parts. At the same time, the secretions in private parts change, showing yellow-green and emitting an unpleasant odor . Some patients may have symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain.
Trichomonas vaginitis can be confirmed through vaginal secretions examination, that is, routine leucorrhea. The commonly used treatment method after diagnosis is oral anti-inflammatory drugs, such as metronidazole , tinidazole , paleoacrycin , etc. are all common drugs. In addition, local cleaning treatment is also a common treatment measure.
, gonococcal vaginitis
This is a vaginal inflammation induced by gonococcal infection, which can be transmitted through unclean or confusing sexual life. Some people also spread the infection through indirect transmission, such as being exposed to the infected person's underwear, wearing a piece of clothing together, sleeping naked on a bed, being exposed to a toilet infected with gonococci , etc., which may cause gonococci infection. The lower the immunity, the more likely people are to have infection.
After the infection occurs, its symptoms are lower abdominal pain and vaginal secretions . This secretion mainly manifests as a purulent state of , showing a yellow-green and thick , which looks like it has become purulent, and the secretion is large and emits an unpleasant odor. At the same time, the patient will also experience symptoms such as redness, swelling, pain, and on the vaginal opening.
If gonorrhea vaginitis is not treated in time, it may develop into a chronic gynecological disease.If young women are not treated in time, there is also a risk of infertility and . Therefore, after the diagnosis of gonococcal vaginitis, treatment is required in time.
The main treatment measure for gonorrhea vaginitis is to use antibiotics. Common drugs include penicillin, tetracycline , etc. When Chlamydia or Mycoplasma infection is combined, combined treatment is also required. The dosage of the drug needs to be sufficient, the course of treatment must be regular, and there must be good medication compliance. After cure, the patient also needs to insist on regular review and observe for sufficient time. If there is a sexual partner, both parties should be tested and treated at the same time.
, Cervical cancer
If the vaginal secretions show yellow pus and have a foul smell, the duration lasts for more than two weeks and there is no improvement. This may not be an ordinary gynecological disease, but a manifestation of the arrival of cervical cancer. Especially for women who have had a chaotic sexual life, have had multiple miscarriages, and have had a history of sexual life and childbirth at a young age, they should be highly vigilant.
Cervical cancer In the early stage, the secretions of in private parts are not discharged much, and they appear in a white or light yellow state, and usually have no odor. However, after progressing to the late stage of cervical cancer, some cancer tissues will lack blood oxygen and gradually necrotic, causing tissue infection, causing changes in secretions in the private parts. The patient's private parts will discharge pus-like yellow secretions or pus-blood secretions , and have a strong foul smell.
The prognosis of cervical cancer is directly related to early detection and early treatment. Therefore, after similar symptoms occur, cervical cell smear screening should be memorized, which is a common way to diagnose cervical cancer. If abnormalities are found during the examination, if necessary, colposcopy screening for is required to further check the cervical condition. Once cervical cancer is diagnosed, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and treatments need to be performed in time. The earlier the cervical cancer is intervened in the treatment, the better the prognosis will be.
Doctor has something to say:
Private secretions is actually a barometer of the health of female reproductive organs . Through the changes in secretions, problems hidden in the body can be identified as soon as possible. Yellowing of secretions may be related to gynecological diseases such as trichomonal vaginitis, gonococcal vaginitis, cervical cancer, etc.
Therefore, women should pay attention to the changes in secretion in their daily lives. Once the secretion substances are abnormal, the color and odor, they need to seek medical examination in time.
In daily life, women also need to do a good job in private care , especially pay attention to menstrual hygiene. During menstruation, you need to change your sanitary napkins in time and change your clean underwear every day. In normal times, you should clean your private parts every day and clean them thoroughly after urination and defecation to avoid leaving a chance for pathogens to invade the body.
