Is increased vaginal discharge before period a sign of pregnancy?

Leucorrhea is a liquid secreted by the female reproductive tract. It is transparent in color, has no odor, and is a normal secretion. When the reproductive system is diseased, abnormal vaginal discharge and other conditions will occur. Therefore, observing the characteristics of vaginal discharge is one of the signs to determine whether a woman is healthy or not. However, changes in vaginal discharge during menstruation have more important significance. For example, is increased vaginal discharge before menstruation a sign of pregnancy?

Pregnancy may cause an increase in vaginal discharge, but many other reasons can also cause an increase in vaginal discharge.

Women's leucorrhea will change with estrogen. The ovulation period is the time when estrogen is most active, and the amount of leucorrhea will increase during this period. During the menstrual period, the gradual expansion of the cervical opening will lead to the vigorous secretion of columnar epithelial cells in the cervical canal, which will also cause an increase in leucorrhea. During the menstrual period, the pelvic congestion and the influence of estrogen will lead to increased secretions in the vagina and cervix, causing an increase in leucorrhea. Therefore, it is normal for women to have an increase in leucorrhea before and after menstruation.

If a woman is pregnant, it is possible that the amount of leucorrhea will increase, but it is normal to have an increase in leucorrhea before menstruation, so it is impossible to judge whether a woman is pregnant simply by the increase in leucorrhea. You can wait for a while and observe. If the menstruation still does not come when it is the menstrual period, you should pay attention. If the menstruation is delayed for more than a week, it is best to determine whether you are pregnant through examination. Generally speaking, women can check with early pregnancy test strips, but early pregnancy test strips will have certain errors, and blood HCG examination can more accurately determine whether you are pregnant.
