Abstract
Leucorrhea also spelled leucorrhoea, flow of a whitish, yellowish, or greenish discharge from the vagina of the female that may be normal or that may be a sign of infection. It is mucous discharge which represents desquamation of vaginal epithelial cells because of the effects of estrogen on the vaginal mucosa. It is important to distinguish leucorrhea from pathologic discharge. Leucorrhea usually does not cause irritation but some adolescents worry that it may represent an infection. A total health building scheme is essential for the removal of the systemic toxicity which is primarily responsible for the disease Leucorrhoea. The study aimed to examine whether women presenting with a primary complaint of vaginal discharge is more likely to be normal or infectious. We have done a survey in women of Karachi (sample size n=200 and age group= 14-40) presented at clinics, hospitals, colleges and other different public places with and without a primary complaint of vaginal discharge. Survey was scrutinized using common language of General Health Questionnaire and general Interviews. Women presenting with a primary complaint of vaginal discharge were significantly more likely due to extreme fatigue, not performing healthy lifestyle (eating disorder, never exercise, sleeplessness), dirty environmental sanitation, during pregnancy, before and after normal menstrual cycle, a marker of poverty, and low social integration. It is a domain of gender disadvantage, psychosomatic and women who live under severe stress and worries develop leucorrhea were associated with vaginal discharge in the multivariate model. Pakistani women presenting with vaginal discharge by virtue of unhealthy lifestyle. This research highlights the need for training of medical professionals and council to maintain hygiene. A total health-building scheme is essential for the removal of the systemic toxicity which is primarily responsible for the disease leucorrhoea.
