Is yellowish vaginal discharge normal?

Even if the secretion turns slightly yellow, it is abnormal. Because normal leucorrhea is milky white, if the leucorrhea turns from yellowish to slightly light yellow, you should go to the hospital for examination, mainly to rule out inflammation of the reproductive system, such as vaginitis, cervical endometritis, pelvic inflammation, or submucosal uterine fibroids, large intramural uterine fibroids, etc., which can cause the secretion to change in color. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination in time and give corresponding intervention based on the results of the examination.

Under normal circumstances, women's secretions are very little and the color is milky white. It is recommended to pay attention to the hygiene of sexual life and menstruation in daily life, improve private care, reduce the occurrence of reproductive system inflammation, and go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible if any abnormality is found.

Whether it is normal or abnormal if the leucorrhea is a little yellow depends on the time when it occurs. For example, it is normal if the leucorrhea is a little yellow after ovulation, because at this time due to the continuous increase of estrogen in the body, more cells will be secreted in the vagina, and the secretions will become thicker and milky white or light yellow. If there is no discomfort, you can wash the vulva with warm water and change your underwear every day to prevent and treat it. For example, yellow leucorrhea after menstruation indicates Trichomonas vaginitis. At this time, you need to go to the hospital to make an appointment with the gynecology department to check the female secretions to see if the white blood cell count is high. According to the situation, some lotions or vaginal suppositories can be given for treatment to achieve the purpose of treatment.

If the secretion turns yellow, it depends on whether it is accompanied by other related symptoms, such as vulvar itching, a significant increase in the amount of secretions, vulvar itching, vulvar pain, and the appearance of vulvar growths. If accompanied by the above symptoms, Trichomonas vaginitis is more common. At this time, it is necessary to examine the female secretions and treat them with medication. If the leucorrhea is slightly yellowish without the above symptoms, it is necessary to consider whether it is some physiological changes in secretions that occur under special circumstances such as before menstruation, sexual intercourse, and before ovulation. If it is a physiological change, it can be observed and no special treatment is needed.
