Why does vaginal discharge have a red color1

  1. White discharge with a red color, commonly known as bloody discharge, is a normal physiological phenomenon that occurs during a woman's ovulation period. It takes two to three days for the discharge to gradually subside. In this case, women do not need to worry too much, as red discharge during ovulation is normal. But if this situation persists for a long time, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up.

  2. Vaginitis can also cause red vaginal discharge, which is often accompanied by an increase in vaginal discharge. In addition, the external genitalia may also feel itchy, and women may also experience lower back pain. In severe cases, it can even affect normal conception.

  3. Suffering from uterine fibroids can also cause red vaginal discharge. Uterine fibroids may not have obvious symptoms in the early stages, but can be detected during pelvic examinations. When the condition progresses to a certain stage, women's vaginas will have irregular bleeding and vaginal discharge will significantly increase. In this case, timely treatment is necessary to avoid delaying the condition.
