What is Leucorrhea?
Leucorrhea is defined as is a vaginal discharge which is whitish, yellowish, or greenish in  
color resulting from inflammation or congestion of the mucous membrane. It may  
originate from the vagina, fallopian tubes, ovaries, or most commonly from the cervix. The  
color of the discharge may vary and depends upon the menstrual cycle. The bloody  
discharge makes an unpleasant smell or increases a lot and that can be a symptom of  
infections. It may not lead to any particular complaint like pain, itching, irritation, or  
burning sensation. Due to any infection, malignancy, and change in hormones, it can result 
 in abnormal discharge from the vagina.
Its prevalence:
In India, vaginal discharge is one of the most common symptoms reported by females.  
Leucorrhea does not cause mortality or morbidity in susceptible women, but it can lead to a 
 great extent of mental stress, or sometimes the fear of failure to conceive. It may vary from

the age group of 19 to 47 years. The vaginal discharge was noted in 61% of women who 
 belong to low socio-economic and 24% belong to high-socio economy.
What are the Types of Leucorrhea?
Leucorrhea is of two types:
Physiological leucorrhea: In physiological leucorrhea, there is an excessive discharge or  
secretion from a vagina. It mainly occurs in teenage girls due to the imbalance of hormones 
 at the time of the ovulation period. In adults, it occurs in the early days of pregnancy and  
during sexual excitement.
Pathological leucorrhea: It occurs due to the malfunctioning or disease in the female  
reproductive system. This abnormal discharge can be slimy or may contain blood as well as  
having a foul smell. It is mostly seen in females who are suffering from cervicitis or  
vaginitis.
What is an Ayurvedic View of Leucorrhea?
According to Ayurveda, we can correlate leucorrhea with ‘Shweta Pradara’. In many books, 
 Acharyas had described that Shweta pradara is not a disease but it is a symptom of various 
 diseases. As per the symptoms, it seems to be a Kaphaja disorder because in the body the  
Kapha Dosha is the main causative factor for any discharge. This aggravation of the kapha  
dosha produces white and painless vaginal discharge due to the dominance of its liquid  
property. It also vitiates the Rasadhatu of the reproductive system. Causative factors  
responsible for it are excessive coitus, improper mode of life, abortion, and ritukala along  
with non-cleanliness of the vagina.
The main causes as per Ayurveda are- 
 Viruddhahara- Unhealthy food  
Madyapana- Alcohol intake
Adhyashana- Intake of repeated food which leads to indigestion 
 Ajeerna- Undigested food
Garbhapata- Too many of abortions 
 Shoka- Grief and stress  
Bharavahana- Weight lifting  
Abhighata- Injury

 to infections can cause subsequent discharge like Syphilis, gonorrhoea, AIDS etc.

 discharge in females.
