I believe many girls may encounter some difficulties in their daily lives, such as itching in their vagina or other gynecological inflammations. At this time, the first choice is to go to the hospital for a detailed examination. So, how many items are included in the complete vaginal discharge examination?
1. PH value
Generally speaking, the vagina has the ability to purify itself, so testing the pH value can determine whether the vagina is healthy. The normal value is usually around 4.5. So if it exceeds this range, a detailed examination must be conducted to understand the cause.
2. The cleanliness level of the vagina
Usually, this indicator is divided into four levels. Generally speaking, levels one to two are within the normal range. However, if it reaches levels three and four, it indicates that abnormal vaginal discharge may indicate gynecological inflammation.
3. Mold and Trichomonas
Under normal circumstances, these two things are not present in a girl's vaginal discharge, but once trichomonas or mold are present, the report will express it in the form of a+.
4. Amine test
Generally speaking, vaginal discharge with diseases often emits a fishy odor, which is caused by some components in the discharge and can also be detected through amine testing.
5. Clue cells
Generally speaking, clue cells are the most prominent feature of bacterial vaginitis, so once abnormal vaginal discharge appears, this type of cell will appear.
