What is the reason for less vaginal discharge?

As female friends get older, they will gradually find that the amount of vaginal discharge they have every month is actually less and less every month. What is going on? Perhaps many young female friends do not have this problem, but this often happens to our mothers. So today I will tell you the reasons for the small amount of vaginal discharge. I hope you don’t worry too much, but you also need to pay attention to your physical condition at all times.

The decrease in vaginal discharge is usually due to older age or poor ovarian function, that is, when ovarian function is declining. If the leucorrhea is significantly reduced or absent, symptoms such as vaginal dryness, difficulty, sexual dysfunction, discomfort, burning pain, etc. will appear. It may also be accompanied by dizziness, tinnitus, soreness and weakness in the lower limbs, anxiety, thinning hair, etc. The amount of vaginal discharge is reduced and the secretion is less, causing the vaginal mucosa to be thinner and drier. At the same time, if there is too little leucorrhea for a long time, the vagina's self-defense function will be weakened, and women will be more susceptible to vaginitis.

1. Caused by neuroendocrine dysfunction: The main reason is that the function of the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian axis is unstable or defective, that is, the amount of leucorrhea after abortion becomes abnormal. This article is from Guiyang Modern Women's Hospital

2. Caused by organic diseases: including inflammation, tumors and developmental abnormalities of the reproductive organs, malnutrition; intracranial diseases; other endocrine dysfunctions such as thyroid and adrenal cortex dysfunction, diabetes, Sheehan's disease, liver diseases, blood diseases, etc.

Generally speaking, a small amount of vaginal discharge will not affect pregnancy, because a small amount and a large amount of vaginal discharge are relative. Normal women should only secrete a very small amount of leucorrhea except during ovulation. During ovulation, a transparent, sticky, egg white-like vaginal discharge is secreted, which facilitates the passage of sperm. This usually happens during the one or two days between periods. If you have not been successful in preparing for pregnancy for a period of time, it is recommended that you go to the hospital to test your ovulation. If you have sex on the ovulation day, the pregnancy rate will be much higher.

Although a small amount of vaginal discharge will not directly affect pregnancy, if the amount of vaginal discharge is too small for a long time, the vaginal defense function will be weakened, making it easy to get infected and develop vaginitis. The occurrence of gynecological diseases will greatly affect the chance and quality of pregnancy.

Through the editor's introduction, do you have a certain understanding of the reasons for the small amount of vaginal discharge? In fact, the small amount of vaginal discharge can be divided into two categories. One is due to the decrease of one's own estrogen, and the other is due to lesions. But no matter what, if the amount of vaginal discharge is too little, it will be very unfavorable for the health of female friends.
