There is a lot of vaginal discharge in the toilet and it is a little yellowish, what s the matter

To check whether the leucorrhea is normal, it is necessary to observe the quantity, color, texture and smell. Normal leucorrhoea should be milky white or colorless and transparent, with a slight fishy or tasteless odor; The amount of secretion and texture are affected by the level of estrogen and progesterone in the receptors, and there are cyclical changes with the menstrual cycle. Generally, the amount of vaginal discharge is low after menstruation; Before ovulation, due to the increase in estrogen levels in the body, the epithelial cells of the cervical gland are proliferated, the secretion of cervical mucus increases, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus increases, which can absorb more water, so that the vaginal discharge during ovulation increases, the quality is thin, the color is clear, the appearance is like egg white, and the filament can be stretched; After ovulation, the level of estrogen gradually decreases, the level of progesterone increases, the secretion of cervical mucus is inhibited, and the content of sodium chloride in the mucus also decreases, making the leucorrhoea at this time thick, milky white, malleable, and easy to break.

In addition, there are also some physiological phenomena such as pregnancy and oral contraceptives, which will cause increased vaginal discharge, which is also related to changes in estrogen and progesterone levels in the body.

If leucorrhea increases for no reason, or is accompanied by changes in color, texture, or smell, you should be vigilant.
