    The recovery of leucorrhea can be improved by adjusting living habits, supplementing nutrition, treating gynecological inflammation, adjusting hormone levels, and conditioning with traditional Chinese medicine. Reduced leucorrhea stringiness may be related to factors such as endocrine disorders, vaginitis, cervicitis, ovarian hypofunction, and high mental stress.

    1. Adjust living habits

    Keep your perineum clean and dry, choose cotton underwear and change it daily, and avoid wearing tight pants or sitting for long periods of time. Regular work and rest, reducing staying up late, and moderate exercise can help improve pelvic blood circulation. Avoid excessive douching of the vagina, which can disrupt the balance of flora.

    2. Supplement nutrition

    Appropriately increase the intake of high-quality protein such as eggs and fish, and supplement vitamin E and B vitamins. You can consume soy products and flaxseeds rich in phytoestrogens, but excessive amounts must be avoided. Patients with iron deficiency anemia need to supplement iron-containing foods such as animal liver and red meat.

    3. Treat gynecological inflammation

    For bacterial vaginosis, you can use metronidazole vaginal effervescent tablets and clindamycin phosphate vaginal gel as directed by your doctor. For fungal vaginitis, clotrimazole vaginal tablets and miconazole nitrate suppositories can be used. Cervicitis requires the use of Baofukang suppositories, anti-metritis tablets and other drugs.

    4. Regulate hormone levels

    Perimenopausal women may experience a decrease in estrogen and need to have six sex hormones tested. People with premature ovarian failure can take estradiol valerate tablets, progesterone capsules and other hormone drugs under the guidance of a doctor. Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome require comprehensive management of insulin resistance.

    5. Traditional Chinese Medicine Conditioning

    For kidney deficiency type, Wuji Baifeng Pill and Dingkun Dan can be used, while for spleen deficiency and excessive dampness, Shenling Baizhu Powder can be used. Moxibustion on Guanyuan, Sanyinjiao and other acupoints, or use traditional Chinese medicine fumigation therapy. Treatment needs to be based on syndrome differentiation and avoid taking nourishing Chinese medicines on your own.

    You can drink yam and Gorgon porridge daily to regulate your spleen and kidneys, and avoid raw, cold and spicy foods. Keep your mood comfortable. Excessive anxiety may aggravate endocrine disorders. If it is accompanied by vulvar itching, odor or menstrual disorders, it is recommended to undergo routine leucorrhea, gynecological ultrasound and other examinations in time. If long-term abnormal leucorrhea occurs, systemic diseases such as diabetes must be ruled out. Do not abuse vaginal washes or antibiotics.
