व्हाइट डिस्चार्ज (लिकोरिया) क्या है ?

Leukorrhea is a mild, odorless discharge from the vagina that is clear or milky in color.1 Many people notice that leukorrhea increases during pregnancy, either at the start of pregnancy or as the pregnancy progresses.


In most cases, this discharge is normal and healthy. Some people worry that having it means that they have a vaginal infection, but most of the time, leukorrhea is completely harmless (and is even a sign that the vagina is healthy).

During pregnancy, leukorrhea may become more noticeable. This type of vaginal discharge often increases due to the added blood flow to the area and the increase in pregnancy hormones, like estrogen.2 The additional blood flow and pregnancy hormones stimulate the mucus membranes in the vagina to produce more discharge.
