Does pregnancy discharge increase?

Discharge will increase after pregnancy. The formation of female secretions is directly related to the action of hormones. As there will be different degrees of increase in hormones in pregnant women, it is normal to see an increase in secretions. During pregnancy, both female estrogen and progesterone increase, which causes the cervical glands to proliferate and hypertrophy, increasing the secretion of mucus with a thick texture and forming mucus plugs that can protect the uterine cavity from foreign pathogenic microorganisms. During pregnancy, the discharge is usually white, without fishy odor, etc. If the discharge is yellowish in color, accompanied by fishy odor, or if the vaginal discharge changes to beanbag-like, accompanied by itching and tingling in the vulva and vagina, it may be an inflammation of the reproductive tract, and the patient is advised to go to the gynecology department of the hospital for relevant examinations and then do targeted treatment according to the examination results. During pregnancy, pregnant women must pay attention to personal hygiene, change their underwear and underpants regularly, and bathe regularly. It is important to pay attention to the cleanliness and dryness of the vulva to reduce the chance of infection.
