Vaginal discharge is normal for a woman, and all women are different. It is common for women during child bearing years and during pregnancy.  

Generally leucorrhea secretions are whitish, slimy and a little bit sticky.  It can almost be compared to the consistency of nasal secretions.  The amount of secretions vary with a woman’s menstrual cycle and will peak at ovulation, as well as when a woman feels emotionally stressful.

However, discharge that is profuse, has a foul smell, is tinged with blood or changes in its colour should be a cause for concern.

The vagina is kept healthy and happy with a complex combination of hormones, and body chemistry.  Changes in vaginal discharge are often an early indication of hormone imbalance, stress, and improper diet; it can also be aggravated by hormone supplements and birth control.

Symptoms

An abnormal, profuse whitish discharge is the first and foremost symptom of leucorrhea.  The discharge is accompanied by an itchy sensation or a pain in the lower abdomen.  It is darker in colour than usual, mostly yellow, green or brown.  Other symptoms include nausea, a feeling of weakness and tiredness, or a congested heavy feeling.  She may also suffer from pain in lumbar region, thigh muscles and calves.
