What is the reason for leucorrhea in a 12-year-old girl

Discharge is a unique physiological phenomenon of women. It is a milky white or creamy white thick liquid that flows out of the vagina. It is very important for women. It contains lactobacillus, lysozyme and antigen, which have the effect of inhibiting the growth of bacteria. This shows that secretions are very important to women, and therefore they need to master more professional knowledge about secretions. Regarding this matter, many people ask women at what age they first start to have leucorrhea?

1. Can a 12-year-old girl have leucorrhea?

Under normal circumstances, the discharge comes at the age of 15 to 16, that is, after the girl's puberty, that is, after the first menstruation. The discharge is a symbol of the first menstruation. However, some girls grow and develop early and may have secretions at the age of 12, but this is only a small number of people.

In every month, women have leucorrhea in their vagina almost every day. Under normal circumstances, the secretion is less. Only during the ovulation period will the secretion of leucorrhea increase. There is less leucorrhea during the menstrual period for 6 days in each month. That is, the safe menstrual period after the end of normal menstruation is when there is less leucorrhea. The closer you get to ovulation, the more secretions you will have, and once ovulation is over, the amount of secretions will decrease.

Secretion basically occurs every day. Under normal circumstances, the amount of secretion is relatively small, but there is also a noticeable increase in vaginal discharge before menstruation. Secretion is a natural barrier to protect female reproductive health. Therefore, women can roughly understand some physiological problems by understanding secretions. If there is abnormal vaginal discharge, female friends should check and receive treatment as soon as possible to avoid causing great inconvenience to the body.

2. Reasons for increased leucorrhea in 12-year-old girls:

1. Physiological leucorrhea: Women have abnormal leucorrhea due to physiological changes, such as changes in the color, volume, and smell of the secretions. And it is always accompanied by itching and pain in the vulva. This kind of abnormal leucorrhea needs to be treated by a doctor immediately.

2. Excessive vaginal discharge caused by work-related stress: Some women, in a fiercely competitive environment, in order to avoid elimination and to secure high-paying jobs, often set excessive demands and goals for themselves. They are busy with work, interpersonal relationships, and "recharging". Excessive mental pressure can cause autonomic nervous system disorder in the long run, affecting the body's endocrine regulation, resulting in excessive vaginal discharge.
