DESCRIPTION

An abnormal whitish or yellowish discharge from the vagina containing mucus and pus cells; also spelt as leukorrhea.

Persons most commonly affected:

Females of menstruating ages.

Organ or part of body involved:

Female reproductive system.

Symptoms and indications:

An abnormal vaginal discharge which is usually heavy, may be accompanied by itching of the genital organs and anal area, and may have a disagreeable odor.

Causes and risk factors:

Caused by an infection of the vagina by fungi, parasites, or bacteria. It may also be caused by an infection of the cervix, a tumour, or other abnormal growth, the presence of foreign matter (such as a forgotten tampon) in the vagina, or an inflammation of the vagina caused by chemicals in douches or contraceptive creams or jellies.

Prevention:

A good diet is essential in the prevention of leucorrhea especially in foods containing vitamins A and B. Avoid underwear made of synthetics and tight fitting jeans. Try wearing cotton underwear instead. Avoid harsh detergents, bubble baths, or similar products.
