Female friends must have a certain understanding of the possible factors so that they can be vigilant and seek medical treatment in time. So, what is the matter with white and watery vaginal discharge? Let’s take a closer look at it below.

Obstetricians say that this abnormal leucorrhea phenomenon is actually mostly caused by gynecological inflammations such as cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, vaginitis, trichomoniasis, and candidal vaginitis. Women's physiological leucorrhea is milky white, small in amount, odorless and transparent. During puberty, the leucorrhea changes due to the influence of the environment. During ovulation, the leucorrhea is large in amount and resembles egg white. Leucorrhea is a liquid secreted from the female vagina. If the leucorrhea is like water, it should be considered abnormal. Watery leucorrhea is a phenomenon of abnormal leucorrhea, which can cause a lot of trouble to women. Not only will the shorts become wet easily, but there are also some odors that are unbearable for women.

Watery vaginal discharge is a symptom. Many diseases can cause watery vaginal discharge, such as vaginitis, cervicitis, and cervical cancer. This symptom may appear in the early stages. The symptom of watery leucorrhea is not specific and does not indicate a symptom specific to any disease. Therefore, if you have watery leucorrhea, you should be vigilant and go to the hospital for regular check-ups.

During each menstrual cycle, the quality and quantity of leucorrhea changes as the secretion of estrogen varies. Generally, the secretion of estrogen reaches its peak between two menstruations (equivalent to the ovulation period). Excessive estrogen stimulates the cervical glands to secrete more mucus, so the leucorrhea at this time is watery, profuse, and transparent. It is sticky like egg white and can be pulled into threads, and the vulva feels moist. After the ovulation of the follicle, progesterone increases and inhibits the secretion of cervical mucus. At this time, the leucorrhea is less in amount and thicker.

In the few days before and after menstruation, due to pelvic congestion, vaginal exudate increases, leucorrhea also increases slightly, and leucorrhea may also appear watery. If it contains more exfoliated cells, the leucorrhea will become turbid. In addition, the amount of leucorrhea increases after pregnancy, during sexual excitement, and after sexual intercourse, and the leucorrhea may also appear watery. Pay attention to observation. If you are worried, it is best to go to a regular hospital for examination. If there is inflammation, it is better to treat it in time.

The above is an introduction to what causes white, watery leucorrhea. I hope it will be helpful to female friends. White watery vaginal discharge is caused by gynecological diseases, including cervical diseases. Since it is related to female fertility, timely treatment is very important. Otherwise, female infertility will affect the happiness of the entire family.
