How to read the report of gynecological secretion test

The gynecological secretion test report form usually refers to the lab report of routine white belt examination, which mainly includes what is seen in the examination, common diagnoses, normal results and abnormal results: I. What is seen in the examination: refers to the changes of various indicators presented in the examination. Common diagnosis: negative and positive. Normal results: negative indicators generally mean that the leucorrhea is normal and can be left untreated. Abnormal results: 1) abnormal pH: an increase in pH, i.e. pH > 4.5, indicates possible trichomoniasis or bacterial vaginosis; 2) abnormal vaginal cleanliness: the reported results show that the vaginal cleanliness varies from Ⅰ to Ⅳ. If it is Ⅰ, the microscopy is dominated by Bacillus vaginalis and a large number of epithelial cells are visible, which is normal. If it is degree II, it means that there are a few white blood cells in the vagina with a few miscellaneous bacteria or pus cells, suggesting that there is already a mild bacterial infection. If it is degree III, it means that there are a lot of pus cells and bacteria in the vagina and there is already vaginal inflammation. If it is degree IV, it means that there are mainly pus cells and miscellaneous bacteria in the vagina and the bacterial infection is very serious. 3. Abnormal vaginal microorganism: It suggests the possibility of mycosis or trichomoniasis vaginitis. 4. Abnormal white blood cells: Positive white blood cells. When the result is (++) and above, it often means that there may be vaginal inflammation. 5. Abnormal amine test: A positive amine test indicates bacterial vaginosis and the patient’s leukorrhea will have an odor due to the release of ammonia when the amine present in the leukorrhea is met with alkali. 6. Abnormal clue cells: The edge of the vaginal epithelial cells can be seen in the hanging drop smear in a granular or dotted pattern, indicating a positive clue cell result. This usually indicates bacterial vaginitis, which can be treated with appropriate medication under the guidance of a doctor according to the infecting organism.
