Is it normal to have clear snot when going to the toilet?

If women find transparent snot-like substance in the vagina when going to the toilet, they should pay attention to it. This kind of leucorrhea may have both physiological and disease reasons. The most common one is during women's ovulation period. If it occurs frequently, they should go to the hospital for examination in time. Let’s take a look at this aspect.

1. Sometimes when I go to the toilet, I find there is a long string hanging down there.

2. Sometimes there is a small piece of jelly-like gel on the underwear that can be removed by hand.

3. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning I find it wet down there, and it feels slippery when I touch it with my hand. This is a very obvious wire drawing phenomenon.

4. Sometimes you feel slippery down there when you are taking a shower.

5. Sometimes when you wipe your butt after going to the toilet, you find that the leucorrhea feels a bit like clear nasal mucus. This is not very obvious but it is also a drawing phenomenon. If there is no stringiness, the normal leucorrhea is water starch-like and stains the underwear. After it dries, it becomes powder that can be rubbed off.

The menstrual cycle is regular, with each cycle lasting 28-30 days. Ovulation usually occurs about 14 days before the next menstruation. The ovulation period is within 10 days between 5 days before ovulation and 4 days after ovulation, which is also the fertile period.

Under normal circumstances, the secretion of cervical mucus is directly affected by the cyclical effect of ovarian hormones. After the menstrual period, the ovaries secrete the lowest level of estrogen. At this time, the cervical mucus is less and more viscous, contains fewer nutrients, and contains a large number of white blood cells. It is difficult for sperm to pass through this mucus.

It is not very reliable to observe whether ovulation is normal through the stringy phenomenon of leucorrhea. You can go to the hospital to observe the development of follicles through B-ultrasound, or you can determine whether you are in the ovulation period by checking the cervical mucus.
