The water in the lower body has a strange smell

Women's menstrual periods are regular, especially the leucorrhea phenomenon can indicate gynecological problems. If the discharge from the lower body has an odor, you should be alert. Generally, leucorrhea is transparent and has no odor, and the amount is neither more nor less. If these conditions change, it means that related gynecological diseases have occurred, especially vaginitis, which is more likely and requires timely medication.

What are the common causes of vaginal discharge with odor?

1. For bacterial vaginosis, it is usually the imbalance of normal flora in the vagina. It can be seen from over-cleaning of the vagina, such as excessive flushing with cleaning products. Under normal circumstances, there are some normal flora in the vagina. When we destroy the survival ratio of these flora, it will easily induce some bacterial inflammation. Therefore, we should not over-wash the vagina. This is the first possible scenario for vaginal discharge having an odor.

2. For fungal vaginitis, it is usually caused by low immunity due to pregnancy or major illness. When the body's resistance is low, we must do a good job of nutrition and rehabilitation to prevent some fungi from taking advantage of the situation and causing fungal vaginitis. This is the second situation in which vaginal discharge has an odor.

3. For senile vaginitis, the decrease of some hormones and the decline of resistance caused by aging provide some bacteria with opportunities to reproduce. Therefore, the elderly also need to take care of their vaginal area, such as proper cleaning, enhancing the body's resistance, and slowing down the process of endocrine changes.

4. For Trichomonas vaginitis. Under normal circumstances, the vagina is acidic. Before and after menstruation, the vagina is neutral, and this environment provides a good opportunity for the reproduction and invasion of Trichomonas. Therefore, before and after menstruation, we should pay more attention to the cleanliness and dryness of the vaginal area. Change sanitary napkins frequently and avoid wearing tight underwear. The last possible scenario for vaginal discharge having an odor.
