Divided to : - Low infection - High infection Marked of ostium uteri internum. Low Infection Vulvitis, vaginitis dan cervisitis caused by bacterial, parasite, viral, mycosis. The most common symptom is leucorrhea (Fluor albus). High Infection Endometritis, salphingitis, and adnexitis. Gynecological Infection LEUCORRHEA
Fisiologic : clear, no itch, no odor, not colouring underwear. Caused by vaginal transudat, the secretions of cervix, Bartholin and Skene glands.
Etiology : Corpus alienum. Bacterial infection ex : G. Vaginalis, N.Gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia, M.Hominis,etc Viral infection ex : DNA viral. Others :
Candida infection. Trichomonas infection. Cervicitis. Atrophy vaginitis. Others ex neoplasma, Enterobius vermikularis, vaginal ulcus, etc. Symptoms : Increased number of secretion. Odor, itch and colouring underwear. Spesific secretion : Milky secretion usually from vagina Mucopurulent secretion usually from cervix. Purulent secretion usually caused by gonococcus. Foamy secretion usually caused by trichomonas. Cheese like secretion usually with pruritic caused by Candida. Bloody secretion usually caused by neoplasma, senilis endometrytis Diagnosis :
1. Sign and symptom. 2. Ph test of vaginal secretion. 3. Wet preparation ( Sodium Chloride ). 4. Swiff test ( KOH).

The cervix have two different type of epithelial cells - squamous epithelium. - glandular epithelium. The cause of cervical inflammation depends on the epithelium affected. Trichomonas, Candida, and Herpes Simplex virus can cause inflammation of the ectocervix. N. GO and C. Trachomatis infect only glandular epithelium and make mucopurulent endocervicitis ( MPC ).
