White discharge has become a common issue for women in the current era. If the discharge becomes smelly or if it is happening for a long period, it could be a case of Leucorrhea. Many women, due to hesitation, are not able to come up and talk openly about the problems they are facing. Hence, their condition is left untreated. Intimate health need not be ignored or taken for granted, as it may become worse later.
Leucorrhea is a condition in which an excessive amount of vaginal discharge is experienced. The discharge could be white, yellow or green and could have a bad odour. It may require medical attention as it can be due to a hormonal imbalance or vaginal infection.
Causes of Leucorrhea
- Pregnancy could be a reason behind excessive vaginal discharge.
- Maintaining no cleanliness or using items that contain fragrance, such as soaps or various vaginal washes, for cleaning the vagina can cause irritation as well as infection.
- Bacterial or yeast infections can develop due to tight undergarments or sweat, which leads to a foul smell.
- Change in hormones during puberty, pregnancy or during menopause can affect the pH value of the vagina, thereby causing excessive discharge.
- STIs like gonorrhea or chlamydia can cause yellowish-green discharge.
- Lifestyle factors like poor hygiene, an unbalanced diet, and even stress can contribute to this condition.
Get it checked if your discharge is not normal, white, and odourless. Getting it checked on time is very important to avoid any further risk or complication related to intimate health.
