Cervical mucus and leucorrhea are both manifestations of female secretions, but there are certain differences between them. We can also understand our reproductive health status through some of their morphological manifestations. Especially when the leucorrhea is abnormal, women must be cautious, because many gynecological diseases may manifest in leucorrhea, so we should pay attention to the difference and understanding. 1. Cervical mucus and leucorrhea are different. Although there are certain differences, there is an inseparable relationship between the two. Leucorrhea has many components, and cervical mucus is one of them. It mainly appears around the cervical opening, and plasma protein, sodium chloride, glycoprotein and water hydrogel are the main components. 2. Leucorrhea is a kind of discharge from the vagina. It is a mixture of exudates from the vaginal mucosa, cervical glands, and of course endometrial glands. It contains desquamated cells from the vaginal epithelium, as well as non-pathogenic bacteria and white blood cells. 3. Stringy leucorrhea actually refers to a special state of leucorrhea due to the increase in water content of cervical mucus and its toughness. During ovulation, secretions will also increase, and the leucorrhea will appear transparent and stringy. Although the leucorrhea can be stretched, it is not easy to break. It is very elastic and appears like egg white. The cervix is the only way for male sperm to invade the uterus. Cervical mucus plays an important protective role for the uterus. Because the cervical mucus has more water and is more tough, it causes the stringy leucorrhea to flow out of the body. 4. What is the difference between cervical mucus and leucorrhea? Cervical mucus is different from leucorrhea, and cervical mucus is a component of leucorrhea. Leucorrhea is a normal physiological phenomenon of the female body. If there is any abnormality in leucorrhea, there will be certain problems with physical health, so you must observe the leucorrhea carefully. |
