The discharges form vagina are sometimes disturbing as it keeps changing in thickness and quantity. When is it that I should worry about the vaginal discharge?
Small amounts of fluid are formed in the vagina by the glands present in the walls of vagina and cervix. These secretions along with old cells of the lining of the vagina and cervix come out of the vagina though out the day. This is a protective function and is the body’s way of keeping your vagina healthy and clean. Normally discharge is clear or milky and doesn’t smell bad. The color and thickness of the discharge change, with your monthly cycle. The discharge is thicker when you ovulate (when one of your ovaries releases an egg), when you breastfeed and when you’re sexually excited.
