Is it normal for vaginal discharge to be a little yellow?

Leucorrhea is a special fluid secreted by the female urinary system. Normal leucorrhea is slightly white and viscous. As a substance secreted by the human body, you can naturally judge your physical health condition by the abnormality of leucorrhea. Since the endocrine system is one of the important systems of the human body and due to the particularity of the female physiological structure, female reproductive diseases have always been easy to infect, easy to relapse, and difficult to cure. So, is it normal for women to have yellow vaginal discharge?

For example, increased vaginal discharge may occur during ovulation or pregnancy, when the endometrium grows too long, or after the use of estrogen drugs. Pathological: vaginitis, chronic cervicitis, senile vaginitis, endometritis, uterine effusion or foreign body in the vagina, uterine fibroids, genital herpes, gonorrhea, condyloma acuminatum, uterine prolapse, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, etc. Clinical manifestations: Pathological leucorrhea with changes in amount, color, shape and taste may indicate different diseases.

Purulent leucorrhea: yellow or yellow-green in color, mucous or foamy, with a foul odor, is mostly caused by vaginal inflammation, among which Trichomonas vaginitis is the most common, and is often accompanied by vulvar itching. It can be seen in chronic cervicitis, senile vaginitis, endometritis, mesometrial effusion or foreign body in the vagina. Check: Whether the leucorrhea is normal should be judged by observing the amount, color, texture and smell.

Women hold up half the sky, and women’s reproductive health is also related to the physical health of the next generation of children. Leucorrhea, as a special fluid secreted by the female reproductive system, can reflect the physical condition in some aspects. Therefore, women can start with the smell and color of leucorrhea. For example, yellow leucorrhea is abnormal and it must be discovered and treated in time to avoid delaying the best time for treatment.
