After pregnancy, the estrogen level in the body increases as the pregnancy progresses. Estrogen promotes the secretion of cervical glands and endometrial glands, increasing the amount of vaginal mucus. What should I do if a pregnant woman has abnormal leucorrhea? It is normal for a pregnant woman to have more leucorrhea than before pregnancy, and it is milky white, odorless, like egg white. If the color, quantity, and quality of leucorrhea change abnormally, it is called abnormal leucorrhea. If a pregnant woman has abnormal leucorrhea, the most likely causes are vaginitis caused by parasites and candidal vaginitis. What should I do if I have abnormal leucorrhea during pregnancy? Because pregnant women's genitals, vagina, and cervix have abundant blood flow and their tissues are moisturized, their leucorrhea and secretions increase, making them very susceptible to bacterial infection and inflammation. Vaginitis caused by water mites is transmitted directly through sexual intercourse, or indirectly through bathtubs, bath towels, swimming pools, toilets, clothes, medical equipment, etc. The amount of leucorrhea increases and is gray-yellow, thin, foamy, occasionally bloody or purulent, with a fishy smell, accompanied by vulvar itching or a crawling sensation, or burning, pain, and dyspareunia. If the urethra is also infected, there will be symptoms such as frequent urination, painful urination, and hematuria. Abnormal leucorrhea during pregnancy is a common symptom among women. In clinical practice, vaginitis is the most common, such as Trichomonas vaginitis and candidal vaginitis, which are the two most common inflammations during pregnancy. If during pregnancy the amount of leucorrhea increases, and is grayish yellow, thin, foamy, occasionally bloody or purulent, and has a fishy smell, and is accompanied by vulvar itching or a crawling sensation, or burning, aches, and pains, you should be alert to the possibility of Trichomonas vaginitis. If the amount of vaginal discharge increases during pregnancy and appears white like bean curd or curd; and the vulva is extremely itchy, usually starting from the inside of the labia minora and then spreading to the vulva, you should be alert to candidal vaginitis. If a pregnant woman has abnormal leucorrhea, she should go to the hospital for examination. If parasites are found in the vaginal secretions, it can be diagnosed as parasite vaginitis.

The odor in the lower body of a pregnant woman may also be caused by other reasons. When this happens to you, you must not take any medicine randomly because you are pregnant. Be sure to go to the hospital for examination in time to determine the cause of the odor. Then receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor, and maintain a happy mood during pregnancy so that the baby can develop more healthily.
