LEUCORRHOEA AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT – INTRODUCTION
Today’s fashions are responsible for an increasing number of women and girls suffering from leucorrhoea, commonly called the ‘whites’. In the past, when women were accustomed to wearing warm clothes in winter, very few experienced this bothersome problem. Thick woollen stockings, warm underwear, loose woollen dresses and good shoes used to provide the necessary warmth, even if there was no central heating in the house and only the living room and kitchen were heated. Today, however, we usually live in overheated rooms and dress as lightly as possible even in winter. Add to this modern way of life our inborn vanity that appeals to our desire for a figure that is slimmer than is advisable for good health, and there you have the origin of colds and their serious consequences. What is more, the hectic pace of our times encourages us to overtax our physical strength and inner resources, and if a person has a weak constitution to start with, colds and their consequences are an inevitable result.
