Actually, there are no studies that prove the effectiveness of traditional leucorrhoea drugs. However, there are still some natural ingredients that can be tried to treat vaginal discharge before using drugs with a doctor's prescription.
Vaginal fluid is actually an important component that helps keep a woman's reproductive system healthy and functioning properly. However, normal vaginal fluid is generally odorless, clear or white, and thick and sticky. If you don't meet these criteria, you might experience vaginal discharge.
Leucorrhoea occurs when there is an overgrown Candida albicans yeast infection in the vagina. In addition to vaginal discharge, sufferers can feel other symptoms such as irritation, inflammation, and itching continuously on the pubic area. Itching is usually more severe when sweating or in a humid and hot environment. This is because the fungus that causes leucorrhoea can flourish in this environment.
To overcome this, identify the ingredients below that can act as traditional leucorrhoea.
Yogurt
Probiotic foods, such as yogurt, contain live bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus which help balance the level of bacteria in the body. Some women take it as a traditional vaginal discharge medication to relieve symptoms of vaginal yeast infections. A study found that the content of probiotics in yogurt can fight C. albicans causes of vaginal discharge. In pregnant women, a mixture of yogurt and honey applied to the female area can be used as a safe alternative treatment for vaginal yeast infections. However, this research method still needs to be reviewed.
Oregano oil
Oregano oil which can play a role as a traditional leucorrhoea is different from the oil used for cooking, namely Origanum marjoram. Oregano oil which can act as an antifungal drug is made from wild oregano or Origanum vulgare which contains carvacrol and thymol. According to studies, this material can slow down or even stop the growth of C. albicans. However, people who take blood-thinning drugs or have blood clotting disorders, are not advised to consume this ingredient, because oregano oil is also a natural blood thinner.
Coconut oil
Coconut oil is thought to be effective in fighting the fungus C. albicans. This oil is a fat oil obtained from coconut meat. This oil can be used by applying it directly to the vaginal area. To get the maximum benefit, make sure you use organic coconut oil. Although it is relatively safe as an alternative treatment for vaginal yeast infections, the use of this drug is not recommended if you have an allergy to coconut oil or are using medications for vaginal discharge.
Tea tree oil
Tea tree oil is a type of essential oil that is believed to maintain the balance of flora in the vagina, and helps kill fungus, bacteria, and viruses. But the use of traditional medicine to overcome vaginal discharge still needs to be further investigated.
Boric acid
A study found that boric acid applied to the vaginal area can play a role in handling infections in this area. However, the research still needs follow up. This ingredient is an antiseptic that can be used to treat fungal infections that cannot be cured by other drugs. Besides being a traditional leucorrhoea medicine, boric acid can also be obtained by prescription. Although it is a free drug, but avoid applying this drug to open wounds or taken orally. In addition, this material is also not recommended for consumption by pregnant women. If used excessively, this material can become toxic which can cause kidney disorders, acute failure of the circulatory system, and even death.
