It is normal for a woman’s leukorrhea to increase when she is pregnant. After pregnancy, the body’s production of progesterone and other hormone levels increase, leading to increased leukorrhea.
As the organism remains high in estrogen and progesterone throughout pregnancy. The vaginal epithelium of the perineum thickens and becomes congested, exudate and exudate cells increase, and the mixture of exudate and exudate forms leucorrhea. However, increased leukorrhea does not cause irritation to the vulva, nor does it cause itching in the vulva, it is normal and has no special odor. At the same time, abnormal leucorrhea may occur during pregnancy, such as vaginal bleeding which may lead to brown leucorrhea and vaginal inflammation which may lead to grayish, fishy smelling leucorrhea.
Women should pay attention to the hygiene and cleanliness of the perineum either in normal times or during pregnancy. If there is an increase in leucorrhea with odor and abnormal color, do not be careless and go to the gynecological department of the hospital in time.
