Excessive vaginal discharge and always wet underwear are not uncommon in women, but many people are not aware of the potential health signals behind this. Today, let's discuss this topic from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.

Understanding the Causes of Excessive Vaginal Discharge

Content

Excessive vaginal discharge can be caused by various factors. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is often associated with internal imbalances, such as dampness and heat. Dampness in the body can lead to a weakened spleen and kidney function, which in turn can cause an overproduction of vaginal discharge. Heat in the body can manifest as red, thick, and possibly foul-smelling discharge. It is important to identify the root cause of the problem in order to provide appropriate treatment.

Common Symptoms and When to Seek Medical Attention

Common symptoms of excessive vaginal discharge include a persistent feeling of wetness in the underwear, discomfort or itching in the vaginal area, and sometimes even pain during urination or sexual intercourse. If these symptoms are accompanied by a foul odor, fever, or other systemic symptoms, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent complications and improve overall health.
