What is the cause of excessive vaginal discharge?

Increased vaginal discharge brings troubles and worries to women of all ages. Many women don’t know what to do because of the sudden increase in vaginal discharge. So, why do women experience increased vaginal discharge?

First of all, we need to understand that the increase in vaginal discharge is not necessarily due to illness, because all healthy women will have reproductive tract discharge, and it cannot be understood as a pathology. You should first determine whether the leucorrhea is physiological or pathological.

1. Increased physiological leucorrhea

1. During ovulation or when a woman is pregnant, the increase in estrogen will cause the cervical glands to increase the secretion of mucus.

2. During intercourse, the bodies of both husband and wife will become excited due to sexual intercourse, and women will experience increased vaginal discharge.

3. Excessive stress on women can cause neurological dysfunction, which can easily lead to endocrine disorders and increase in leucorrhea.

4. During sexual intercourse, part of the semen ejaculated into the vagina by the male flows out of the body and is mistaken for leucorrhea.

2. Pathological leucorrhea

In addition to physiological factors that can cause increased vaginal discharge in women, pathological factors can also cause increased vaginal discharge. Common pathological causes of increased leucorrhea include vaginitis, cervicitis, uterine prolapse, genital herpes, uterine fibroids, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, gonorrhea, and genital warts. If a female friend experiences a sudden increase in vaginal discharge, she should be alert to whether she has these diseases.
