What is the discharge during ovulation?

The ovulation period is very important for women, because only with normal ovulation can women successfully conceive and have their own children. Many women who are preparing for pregnancy will choose to calculate their ovulation period and have sex during the ovulation period to increase the probability of pregnancy. Of course, there will be certain secretions during ovulation. So, what kind of secretions will occur during ovulation?

1. Increased secretions

The secretions in the female vagina are affected by various hormones in the ovaries. On a woman's ovulation day and two or three days before ovulation, there will be a significant increase in vaginal secretions. This is caused by an increase in estrogen in the body. Women can feel that their vagina is always wet and their underwear is always wet. Many times, women use sanitary pads during this time to relieve the moisture of their vagina.

2. Transparent color

On non-ovulatory days, vaginal discharge is thick and opaque. However, on the day of a woman's ovulation, her leucorrhea will appear like egg white, slippery and very transparent. This is the female body preparing for fertilization. Such leucorrhea is more conducive to the passage of sperm into the body.

3. Wire drawing

In the few days before and after a woman's ovulation, her leucorrhea will appear stringy. If you touch the leucorrhea with your fingers, it may appear as long threads. Leucorrhea is an important reaction of women on their ovulation day. If such a situation is found, it can be confirmed that the woman has ovulated or is about to ovulate.

During ovulation, estrogen secretion reaches its peak, the amount of cervical mucus is the largest, and its toughness is the greatest. Thin strips of leucorrhea often flow out, which can sometimes be as long as more than ten centimeters. At this time, the woman's lower body is the wettest. When the above-mentioned strip-like leucorrhea flows out, there will be a greasy feeling. This large amount of cervical mucus secretion during ovulation can last for about 2-3 days, which is when women feel the most moist.

After ovulation, the ovaries secrete (progesterone), which prevents the excessive secretion of cervical mucus, reduces leucorrhea, and dries the lower body. After about 10 days, menstruation comes. 1-2 days before the start of menstruation, the amount of leucorrhea increases slightly, but it is not as transparent and sticky as during the ovulation period. The changes in the wetness and dryness of women's lower body caused by the amount of vaginal discharge, such as less, more, and dryer, are the periodic changes of vaginal discharge.

Due to the increase in estrogen levels in the body, the epithelial cells of the cervical glands proliferate, the secretion of cervical mucus increases, and the sodium chloride content in the mucus increases, which can absorb more water. As a result, the female's leucorrhea becomes mucous when approaching ovulation, and becomes clearer, smoother and more elastic, just like the state of egg white, and has the characteristics of high stringiness and not easy to break. The last day of the appearance of this mucus is within 48 hours, which is the ovulation day.
