Patient's question:
I am currently pregnant and have noticed an increase in my vaginal discharge in recent days. What should I do about increased vaginal discharge during pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
During pregnancy, an increase in leukorrhea is normal, mainly related to changes in hormone levels in the body. If the leukorrhea is abundant with normal color, no odor, and proper hygiene measures are taken, it is usually not a problem. Change underwear frequently. If the leukorrhea is abundant with a yellowish color and a foul odor, it may be considered a possible reproductive tract infection. In this case, it is necessary to visit a hospital for relevant tests and then receive targeted symptomatic treatment. In terms of diet, it is recommended to be lighter.
