What is Leucorrhoea

Leucorrhoea is commonly known as white discharge from the female vaginal tract. The discharge could be a smooth flow, or it could be sticky and lumpy. In most women, the nature of the discharge changes as their age advances or if they travel a lot.

Leucorrhoea is a disease that sometimes may ruin women health, physically and mentally. Normally, the wetness of the vagina is not considered a disease. However, if the discharge of the lubricating material is in excess and continues to wet the undergarments, leaving stains on it, then it needs a medical examination. The vaginal discharge may be a fluid or water, which may be thick and yellowish. A foul odour is also associated with the condition, and the excessive discharge may cause itching in the vagina. Because of increased itching due to the discharge, the vagina may get swollen. When this disease turns chronic, then woman may suffer from general forgetfulness, weakness, pain in the waist, paleness on the face, etc. Gradually, it makes you weaker and you may find yourself unable to bear children.
