During pregnancy, your body goes through numerous changes that also affect your intimate hygiene. A common phenomenon is vaginal discharge, which often changes due to hormonal fluctuations. Light to moderate discharge, also called leukorrhea, is usually normal and a sign that your body is functioning well. This discharge is usually clear to milky white, odorless or slightly odorous, and has a liquid to slightly viscous consistency. It plays an important role in keeping the vaginal flora healthy and fighting off infections.
Although discharge during pregnancy is usually harmless, there are some warning signs that you should be careful about:
Strong, unpleasant odor: A fishy or extremely unpleasant odor can be a sign of a bacterial infection.
Discoloration: Yellowish, greenish or gray discharge could indicate an infection or a sexually transmitted disease.
Itching or burning: If you also notice itching, burning or swelling in the vaginal area, this could indicate a fungal infection.
Bloody discharge: Spotting or bloody discharge can be a warning sign, especially in early pregnancy. In any case, you should consult your doctor immediately.
Good hygiene is particularly important to feel good in your skin and keep your intimate area healthy. Here are some practical tips:
Avoid perfumed products: Perfumed soaps or intimate sprays can disrupt the natural balance of your vaginal flora.
Breathable underwear: Cotton underwear is breathable and can absorb moisture well.
Change regularly: Change your underwear regularly to avoid moisture and friction that could cause irritation.
