What happens to leucorrhea in early pregnancy
Pregnancy is a major event in many women\’s lives. Changes in leucorrhea during early pregnancy are a common phenomenon and are also one of the signs of abnormality in the body. The following introduces the specific changes of leucorrhea in early pregnancy from four aspects.
1. Changes in the texture of leucorrhea in early pregnancy
There are many normal changes in leucorrhea during early pregnancy. Pregnancy causes a rise in hormone levels, which can cause changes in the texture of leucorrhea. Under normal circumstances, leucorrhea in early pregnancy should be white, yellowish or transparent, with no peculiar smell and a thick texture, similar to egg white. This is normal.
2. Changes in leucorrhea secretion in early pregnancy
The amount of leucorrhea secreted during early pregnancy will also change. Because the cervix will gradually widen during pregnancy, more leucorrhea will occur. But signs of excessive vaginal discharge are not ideal and may be a sign of inflammation [1] or bacterial infection. Therefore, you need to consult a doctor promptly to get effective treatment.
3. Changes in color and smell of leucorrhea in early pregnancy
In addition to the amount and texture of leucorrhea in early pregnancy, changes in color and smell are also potential signs of abnormality. Normal leucorrhea should be white or yellowish in color and have no odor. However, if the color of the leucorrhea changes to an abnormal color such as gray or green, or has a peculiar smell, then you need to consider the possibility of infection or other gynecological diseases and seek medical treatment in time.
4. How to judge abnormal leucorrhea
In the early stages of pregnancy, women need to pay close attention to changes in leucorrhea. If you notice any unusual changes in your vaginal discharge, you should consult your doctor promptly. Some common leucorrhea abnormalities include the following: (1) The amount of leucorrhea secreted increases significantly; (2) The color of the leucorrhea becomes darker; (3) The texture of the leucorrhea becomes liquid; (4) The leucorrhea produces an odor; (5) It is accompanied by itching and pain and other symptoms. These abnormalities may be a sign of gynecological diseases (such as fungal infection or bacterial infection). When such a situation is discovered, you should contact your doctor for examination in time.
Summary
Changes in leucorrhea during early pregnancy are normal, but abnormal changes in leucorrhea should be taken seriously. Pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene, avoid wearing too tight clothes and overeating, etc., which will affect the change of leucorrhea. If any abnormality occurs, you must seek medical treatment in time to obtain the doctor\’s correct diagnosis and treatment plan.
