What are normal vaginal fluids like?
They are either thick and whitish or slippery and clear. It depends on where you are in your menstrual cycle. There is little odor and no itching or burning. Regular bathing keeps the fluids from getting stale or uncomfortable. The fluids come from the walls of your vagina. They also come from your cervix at certain times in your cycle. They leave the body through the vagina. How much fluid you produce depends on the hormones that guide your menstrual cycle. Usually there is more fluid just before you ovulate when you are pregnant when you are sexually excited You will have less fluid just before your period, while you breast-feed, and during menopause.
