Leucorrhea is sticky like yellow snot

Women's normal leucorrhea should be transparent egg white or milky white and thin and viscous. If the leucorrhea is thick like yellow snot, or the leucorrhea is thick and pulpy, it indicates that the leucorrhea is abnormal. Thick leucorrhea may be a physiological leucorrhea abnormality caused by the body being prone to getting angry, weak spleen and stomach, etc. In addition, disease factors such as infection caused by improper clothing, vaginitis, cervical erosion, etc. may cause thick leucorrhea, which is a pathological manifestation.

If the symptom of thick leucorrhea is not obvious, it can usually be alleviated by drinking more water, paying attention to hygiene, and avoiding eating irritating foods. If the symptoms are obvious, even accompanied by a foul odor, it should be considered that it is caused by inflammation, such as vaginitis. Thick leucorrhea may indicate inflammation. Female friends must pay attention and go to the hospital for a physical examination in time for medication treatment. Sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited during the treatment period to prevent cross-infection due to sexual intercourse, which may make the disease difficult to cure.

White belt drawing

Stringy leucorrhea is a unique characteristic of female secretions in a certain stage. This phenomenon occurs most frequently during the ovulation period. During the ovulation period, women's secretions will increase than usual. The secretions at this time are extremely viscous and appear like transparent egg white, which is clear and quite elastic and not easy to tear. This phenomenon is called stringy leucorrhea.

Under normal circumstances, as the body's estrogen and oestrogen levels change cyclically during the menstrual cycle, the amount and characteristics of secretions will also change regularly. Generally speaking, the amount of secretions is small just after the menstrual period ends; then it gradually increases until before ovulation, affected by the rising estrogen level in the body, the secretions gradually increase, and are thin, clear in color, and shaped like egg white, which can be drawn into polyester fibers; after ovulation, the estrogen level gradually decreases, and the estrogen level rises, so the secretions become thicker and whiter in color, with worse ductility, and are easy to break when drawn. It is important to note that the discharge before menarche may be slightly yellowish and thick. Physiological secretions generally have no fishy odor.
