If a woman's vaginal discharge shows significant color changes accompanied by an odor, it is important to promptly identify the cause and provide effective treatment. After all, changes in vaginal discharge characteristics and the presence of odor often indicate health problems in the reproductive system. So, what is the reason why women's vaginal discharge often emits a green, fishy odor?
1. Female vaginal discharge tends to be green in color and has a distinct fishy odor. There is a lot of discharge, which mainly indicates the presence of vaginitis. There are many types of vaginitis, and green and odorous discharge is common in gonococcal infections of vaginitis.
2. The greenish color and peculiar odor of vaginal discharge may also be related to fungal vaginitis combined with trichomonas infection. This type of inflammation can also exhibit this characteristic of vaginal discharge color, accompanied by a noticeable odor, which belongs to mixed vaginitis.
3. Women with obvious abnormal changes in vaginal discharge accompanied by odor must be vigilant. It is recommended to go to the gynecology department of the hospital in a timely manner to extract vaginal discharge for laboratory testing, so as to determine which pathogenic bacteria the infection belongs to. For example, for vaginitis caused by trichomonas infection, medication that sterilizes and eliminates trichomonas should be used to achieve targeted treatment effects.
4. If the preliminary examination shows that the cause is mycoplasma infection, a drug sensitivity test should be conducted to select sensitive antibiotics for targeted treatment. For some mixed vaginitis, combination therapy is necessary to achieve a good prognosis.
