Discharge during pregnancy is an important indicator of the health of the future mother

For every woman, the waiting time of the child is one of the happiest in her life. Some families prepare for this event long before the onset of pregnancy. And for some, the news of pregnancy can be a complete surprise, but it does not affect the attitude to the future child.

There are, of course, moments during pregnancy that create discomfort and cause some anxiety and excitement in expectant mothers. Allocations during pregnancy are one of the most common problems a woman can face. But, unfortunately, few women can recognize their character. Let's try to figure out which allocations are considered normal, and which require special attention.

Beyond pregnancy, the cervix constantly produces mucus. The entire sexual system of the woman "works" for the fertilization of the egg, and for this, a moist environment is needed to make the spermatozoa successfully reach their goal. Discharge from the vagina is a common occurrence, but with the onset of pregnancy, the expectant mother becomes more alert and pays attention to the slightest changes in her body.

In the first trimester, the uterus works in the same regime, forming a thick discharge. Allocations during pregnancy, starting at week 13, increase (under the action of estrogens) and become more fluid. Allocations during pregnancy should be clean and free from pus or blood, be clear or white, and not have an unpleasant odor. In case the allocation is abundant, you can not use tampons or flavored gaskets, it is better to choose daily sanitary napkins.

In the event that there are white discharge during pregnancy, you should visit a gynecologist, as this may indicate the appearance of thrush (candidiasis). This disease very often darkens the happy time of pregnancy. Fungus (candida) is present in almost every woman, but during pregnancy, because of a change in the hormonal background or because of a decrease in the immunity of a pregnant woman, the fungus can begin to multiply actively and lead to an exacerbation of the disease, which is called thrush.

Clear signs of the appearance of thrush are the allocation of white in the form of flakes, and during an exacerbation there is an itching of the genital organs, which usually begins in the evening after taking a shower. Also, such secretions have an acidic odor. In case of such symptoms, you should consult a doctor, as this disease must be treated. During pregnancy, one should not self-medicate and take the drugs or drugs advertised on the advice of girlfriends. In order for the treatment to be correct, it is necessary to undergo a test and give a smear to the flora. The doctor - gynecologist after confirmation of the diagnosis, most often appoints the LIVAROL suppositories, with the help of which it is possible to cure this disease.

It happens that there are transparent discharge during pregnancy, which are more watery in appearance and have an unpleasant odor. All these symptoms may indicate the onset of bacterial vaginosis. This infection is very dangerous for a pregnant woman, as it can cause premature birth. At the slightest suspicion it is necessary to address to the doctor.

During pregnancy, against the background of hormonal changes in the body, women can manifest certain diseases. One of such common diseases is cervical erosion - it can lead to the appearance of abundant discharge. These discharge during pregnancy can be yellowish or brownish in color. There are no threats of abortion, but it is best to consult a doctor.

In any case, pay attention to any allocation. During pregnancy, the woman's body works in a strengthened mode and should closely monitor all the changes that occur in the body of a woman. Also, excretions can also indicate the pathology of pregnancy. The color of the discharge may change if there is a deficiency in a hormone in the body. This can be identified as a result of blood tests for progesterone and, if there is a defect, hormone spectrum preparations can be prescribed.

But it should be remembered that with the slightest discharge that can be caused by the appearance of infection, you should consult your doctor. A pregnant woman is responsible not only for her health, but also for the health of the baby's future.
