The nature of yellow discharge during pregnancy.

The fact that the discharge is yellow is already a deviation from the norm. You need to pay attention to their shade, quantity, smell. All this will help to recognize the causes of their occurrence, and, therefore, carry out adequate treatment.

1. Bright yellow discharge. The pronounced rich yellow color of the secretions signals you about inflammatory processes in the ovaries or fallopian tubes; do not exclude the possibility of a bacterial infection of the vagina;

2. Dark yellow discharge. Dark shades of yellow will indicate an unpleasant proximity to streptococci, staphylococci, gonococci and E. coli. You may not have the entire bouquet, but just one of the listed bacteria. By the way, you could have had them in small quantities before pregnancy, and your new condition and changes in the body led to the growth of unfavorable bacteria;

3. Yellow discharge with a greenish tint. If you notice a greenish tint to the discharge, with itching and burning, as well as an unpleasant odor, you have gonorrhea or trichomoniasis;

A significant increase in discharge that has a sweetish odor should alert you. Most likely, amniotic fluid is leaking, which is very dangerous for the baby.

If there is itching, you may have an allergic reaction to tight clothing and artificial fabrics, or, alternatively, to intimate hygiene products. The irritant must be eliminated.

• the urinary system is affected;

• vaginal dysbiosis;

• if there are wounds on the labia, genital herpes occurs;

• infections.

Smell, itching, increased temperature with yellow secretions are a serious cause for concern.
