A thick, white discharge can occur throughout your menstrual cycle. This discharge is known as leukorrhea, and it’s completely normal.
The discharge may start out thinner in the days leading up to ovulation, or when an egg is released. During ovulation, the discharge or mucus may become very thick, and mucus-like.
This is a sign that you’re ovulating, and some women use this as a natural indication of fertility. If you were trying to get pregnant, seeing this thick white discharge may indicate to you that it’s time to have sexual intercourse.
Vaginal discharge is used to help keep your vaginal tissues moist and lubricated. It’s influenced by your reproductive hormones, which is why it changes throughout the menstrual cycle and in pregnancy.
Likewise, vaginal discharge is also your body’s way of maintaining the pH balance of your vagina. The fluids act as a natural lubrication to move bacteria, dirt, and germs out of your vaginal cavity.
As long as the discharge has no bad odor and you’re not experiencing any other symptoms, this type of discharge is normal and healthy. In fact, most women produce about a teaspoon of discharge every day.
After ovulation, that amount can increase up to 30 times. This extra fluid might require you to wear a panty liner, but it shouldn’t require you to visit a doctor.
