Yellowish, brownish, greenish, white or dark during pregnancy may harm the baby if they are not properly treated. This is because they can lead to premature rupture of membranes, premature labor, low birth weight and even some infection in the baby.
Breakdowns are caused by microorganisms that populate the vaginal flora and, over time, reach inside, negatively affecting the baby, being potentially dangerous. These releases can be a sign of diseases such as trichomoniasis, bacterial vaginosis, gonorrhea or Candidiasis and should be treated as soon as possible.
Treatment for discharge in pregnancy
Treatment for discharge during pregnancy should be instituted rapidly and may be done with the use of oral or ointment medications for a period of time determined by the physician. Although there is a consensus that pregnant women should not take any medication in the first trimester of pregnancy, the doctor should check the risk / benefit of each case.
If the woman finds that she has some type of discharge, she should observe its color and smell. So when you make an appointment with your obstetrician, you should be informed of all these valuable information as they are critical to the diagnosis and therapy to be instituted.
Normal discharge from pregnancy
It is normal to have discharge during pregnancy, but this refers to that watery or milky discharge, light in color and has no smell. This type of discharge can come in a large or small amount and does not harm the baby as a result of the increase in local blood circulation and the hormonal changes typical of the pregnancy and, therefore, does not require any treatment.
