What causes lower back pain, lower abdominal pain and excessive vaginal discharge?

Leucorrhea is a very important basis for female friends to judge gynecological diseases. Whether the leucorrhea is normal or not also depends on the amount, color and smell of the leucorrhea. Normal leucorrhea should be milky white or colorless, and should be odorless with a slight fishy smell. Low back pain and lower abdominal pain are also common symptoms among female friends. So, why do female friends suffer from lower back pain, lower abdominal pain and excessive vaginal discharge?

The amount and texture of leucorrhea are affected by the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body, and vary cyclically with the menstrual cycle, with varying amounts, textures and thicknesses. Generally, the amount of leucorrhea is less after the menstrual period; before ovulation, due to the increase in estrogen levels in the body, the epithelial cells of the cervical glands are stimulated to proliferate, the secretion of cervical mucus increases, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus increases, which can absorb more water, causing the leucorrhea to increase during ovulation, and the texture is thin, clear in color, and looks like egg white, which can be stretched into long threads; after ovulation, estrogen levels gradually decrease, progesterone levels increase, the secretion of cervical mucus is inhibited, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus also decreases, making the leucorrhea at this time thick, milky white, with poor ductility, and easy to break when drawn.

Common causes of increased leucorrhea include: ① In case of candidal vaginitis, the leucorrhea is yellow or white, and is usually thick, but sometimes thin, and typically appears like tofu dregs or curds; ② In case of trichomoniasis, the leucorrhea is thin and pus-like, yellow, and foamy, or like rice water, grayish white, and smelly; ③ In case of cervical erosion, the leucorrhea is usually yellow, sticky like mucus, and usually odorless; ④ In case of gonorrhea, the leucorrhea is yellow pus-like; (5) In case of pelvic inflammatory diseases such as endometritis, the leucorrhea may increase, be yellow, thin, and often accompanied by abdominal pain; (6) In case of fallopian tube cancer, due to the tumor stimulating the fallopian tube epithelium to exude fluid and the necrosis of the diseased tissue, watery leucorrhea may occur continuously. If a woman has sudden and persistent lower abdominal pain accompanied by fever, increased vaginal discharge, or even chills, high fever, headache, etc., she is likely to have acute pelvic inflammatory disease. It can also be caused by appendicitis. The back pain is thought to be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease.

Pay attention to personal hygiene. You can use special cleaning liquid to clean the genitals and change your underwear frequently. Eat a light diet, avoid eating greasy and spicy foods, do not smoke or drink, and you can eat leeks, celery, yam, millet, crabs, lotus seeds, walnuts, etc. You should also have regular gynecological examinations, and both men and women should treat the disease together, otherwise it will easily relapse. I wish all patients a speedy recovery!
