The vaginal discharge below is like snot

If the leucorrhea is like snot, it is generally a normal physiological phenomenon. For example, when women's hormone secretion is relatively strong, especially during their ovulation period, such symptoms may occur. Of course, it may also be caused by pathological reasons. The most common one is the occurrence of female vaginitis, which is a great threat to women's reproductive health and should be taken seriously.

(1) Normal physiological changes

First of all, if women have leucorrhea that is like snot, they do not need to be overly nervous, because when women are in the ovulation period, the secretion of estrogen reaches its peak, and the cervical glands will secrete more mucus due to the effectiveness of estrogen. Because of the hyperplasia of the epithelial cells of the cervical glands, women will have leucorrhea that is as sticky as snot.

In addition to looking at the texture, whether the leucorrhea is normal also needs to be observed from several aspects such as secretion volume, color, and smell. Therefore, even if a woman has leucorrhea that looks like snot and is very viscous, as long as the color of the leucorrhea is normal and there is no odor, there is no need to worry too much.

When a woman has leucorrhea that is like snot, and is yellow or yellow-green in color, and has a lot of foam, and is accompanied by symptoms of vulvar itching, and the leucorrhea also emits a noticeable odor, it is generally considered to be caused by Trichomonas vaginitis; if the leucorrhea is like snot, and is accompanied by yellow or white leucorrhea, with curds or tofu dregs, a slight odor, and vulvar itching, it is generally considered to be caused by candidal vaginitis.

The above is the introduction about leucorrhea that looks like snot. Leucorrhea that looks like snot does not absolutely mean that there is a disease in the woman's body, but it should be treated differently according to the symptoms. Only the problem of leucorrhea that looks like snot caused by pathological reasons needs active treatment, and there is no need to worry too much about other problems.
