Having a leukorrhea test when there is vaginal bleeding may affect the results.
Subjects are often careful to avoid menstruation when having a leukorrhea test because the large amount of blood present in the vagina during menstruation may interfere with the test results.
Leukorrhea test refers to the examination of vaginal secretions, which are called leukorrhea because they are white, odorless, and in the form of a thin paste. Leukorrhea test can quickly and effectively assist physicians in diagnosing and identifying various types of gynecological inflammation, such as vaginitis, cervicitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease.
In addition to avoiding the menstrual period before the leukorrhea test, patients should avoid sexual intercourse, tub baths, vaginal irrigation, and topical medications within 24 hours before the test, so as not to affect the results of the test.
It is recommended that patients should know the precautions before the leukorrhea test, for example, they should not do the test when there is vaginal bleeding, so as not to affect the results of the test, and they should actively cooperate with the doctor when conducting the leukorrhea test.
