It is no secret that genital secretionsfamiliar to every woman and girl. And even in very young girls, they also happen, often causing concern to their parents. At the same time, it cannot be said that the discharge is always only transparent without inclusions of small lumps and the complete absence of smell. Sometimes they are white, and sometimes they become yellowish and even brown. Almost all women tend to increased attention to what is happening in their body and, of course, yellow vaginal discharge can not go unnoticed. Is it worth sounding the alarm or is it completely normal? Such questions are discussed quite often and the opinions of women are often polar opposites. So, let's try to objectively find out the essence of the issue.
First, even if the yellow discharge is odorless,then in any case it is worth notifying the gynecologist about this, who will decide whether to take a smear to exclude the possibility of various inflammatory processes, which often remain unnoticed.
However, first of all, you should be alertedpresence of smell. It is usually characterized by women as the smell of fish, onions, etc. Of course, pleasant, to put it mildly, is not enough, but the body thus signals the need to take action.
However, yellow, odorless discharge, which women do not notice immediately, can also serve as a warning signal. To begin with, we list those cases when it is considered normal:
- During ovulation, when the output of the so-called "yellow body".
- At the very beginning of menstruation (or after they end). In this case, the yellow, odorless discharge is simply small inclusions of blood clots.
- During pregnancy and in the process of breastfeeding, the color of the discharge may also change. All this is due to the restructuring of the hormonal background of a woman during this period.
- In addition, while taking oral contraceptives, which also contain a small dose of hormones, a change in the color of the discharge can be observed.
These are the main reasons, however, you need to payclose attention to others - the so-called concomitant factors. As soon as you feel itching, discomfort, burning, which are accompanied by a change in the color of the discharge, you should immediately consult a gynecologist to eliminate inflammatory processes, such as inflammation of the ovaries, appendages and even cervical erosion.
There is another case when the yellow dischargeOdorless are considered normal. Within a few hours after unprotected sexual intercourse (in the case of ejaculation in the vagina of a woman), the discharge also changes color. This is a natural reaction to male spermatozoa, which change the vaginal microflora. But in such cases, they manifest themselves a maximum of 10-12 hours after sexual contact.
Итак, не стоит паниковать заранее, но в любом It is better to inform the gynecologist about your concerns. In addition to possible tests that allow you to accurately diagnose your condition, the doctor will help you find suitable oral contraceptives and check your hormones.
