What does it mean when there is an increase in vaginal discharge? An increase in vaginal discharge is a form of abnormal vaginal discharge. It is mostly caused by gynecological diseases, but not always. There are many reasons for the increase in vaginal discharge, which can be specifically divided into physiological and pathological causes. So, what are the reasons for the increase in vaginal discharge? Experts from Xi'an Gynecological Hospital will answer your questions.
What does it mean when there is an increase in vaginal discharge?
1. Physiological increase in vaginal discharge
The physiological increase in vaginal discharge can be divided into four situations: during ovulation or pregnancy, due to increased estrogen levels, the cervical glands secrete more; before and after menstruation, due to pelvic congestion, vaginal and uterine secretions increase; during sexual intercourse, due to sexual excitement, the vestibular glands secrete clear liquid to lubricate the vagina for easier intercourse; after sexual intercourse, most of the semen ejaculated into the vagina flows out of the body, which may be mistaken for an increase in vaginal discharge.
2. Pathological increase in vaginal discharge
Women experience abnormal vaginal discharge due to physiological lesions, such as changes in the color, flow, and smell of secretions. They often accompany symptoms such as itching and pain in the vulva. This type of abnormal vaginal discharge requires immediate medical treatment.
An increase in vaginal discharge is a common symptom of cervical inflammation and sometimes the only symptom. Increased, turbid discharge, with pus or blood, along with urinary symptoms like frequent urination and urgency, are typical symptoms of cervical inflammation and cervical erosion.
Unclean surgery can also lead to abnormal vaginal discharge, such as intrauterine surgery or abortion. If the surgery is not thoroughly disinfected, pathogens from outside the body or from the vagina and cervical canal can be brought into the uterine cavity, where bacteria proliferate on the uterine cavity's wounds, causing endometritis and secreting inflammatory mucus or even pus and blood. Women with chronic adnexal inflammation, severe cervical inflammation, and vaginitis must undergo treatment before accepting intrauterine surgery or abortion. Otherwise, postoperative endometritis may occur, leading to an increase in vaginal discharge.
3. Other reasons for increased vaginal discharge
Other reasons can also cause an increase in vaginal discharge, such as pregnancy. Due to increased secretion of sex hormones, the cervical glands proliferate and secrete more thick mucus. As the fetus grows larger, pressing on the mother's pelvis and vagina, nearby blood vessels expand and become congested, increasing the vaginal mucosa's exudate. Some working women, due to excessive stress, experience nervous system dysfunction, affecting the body's endocrine regulation, resulting in an increase in vaginal discharge.
