Pregnancy is a wonderful time in the life of every woman, which is sometimes overshadowed various diseases. They often appear as yellow discharge, and this is where many expectant mothers begin to panic. An important rule in this case is to calm down and think sensibly. Moreover, yellow discharge is not always a pathology.
Yellow discharge is normal
Yellow discharge does not always “speak” of danger. In some cases this is quite normal phenomenon, and the expectant mother can calm down. Let us consider separately this manifestation of the body in the early and late stages of pregnancy.
In the early stages
On early stages During pregnancy, a woman's body undergoes a hormonal change. Progesterone level ( female hormone) increases rapidly. In this regard, normal discharge becomes different: more viscous and abundant. Normally they do not have unpleasant odor, do not cause any negative feelings in a woman. Their color is white or yellowish, most often they are transparent. In this case, the expectant mother can calm down, since such discharge is completely natural.
In addition, at the very beginning of pregnancy, a woman may notice a few drops of reddish-yellow or dark yellow discharge on her underwear. This is due to the transplantation of the fertilized egg into the uterus, in other words, conception. Not every woman may receive such a signal, and many expectant mothers, seeing it, do not know about their pregnancy. 
Seeing reddish-yellow or dark yellow discharge on her underwear, a woman often does not yet know about pregnancy
My conception was not accompanied by any unusual discharge. But I already knew that I was pregnant, because in this, as in the previous pregnancy, I had a strong desire to sleep. In addition, my new position was accompanied by severe nausea.
In the later stages
During the normal course of pregnancy, they become different - more watery and liquid. This is explained by the predominance of the same progesterone in a woman’s body, which promotes the permeability of blood vessels and the vaginal mucosa. Because of this, the discharge becomes abundant. Normally they are transparent white or yellowish, without any impurities.
A couple of weeks before giving birth, the expectant mother may observe the vaginal discharge of a dense mucous lump. It happens different color, from yellowish to brown. This is the so-called mucus plug, which protects the baby from infection. The time has come for her to come out, after which after some time (it is different for everyone) the baby should appear.
Don't be surprised if you don't see the mucus plug come out, as in some cases it comes off right before you meet your baby.
Yellow discharge as a sign of disease
This is where the positive forecast ends. Most often, yellow discharge is a sign of various health problems. Let's take a closer look at them.
Trichomoniasis
- severe itching and pain in the vagina, external genitalia and when urinating;
- copious foamy discharge of a yellow-green color with an unpleasant odor;
- heaviness and burning in the lower abdomen;
- frequent stools.
Other signs are weakness, general fatigue, and increased body temperature. The mucous membrane on the genitals becomes bright red, with pinpoint hemorrhages. However, the disease can occur in a sluggish form. In this case, the above discharge appears before or at the end of menstruation.
During the birth process, the baby will pass through the birth canal contaminated with trichomoniasis, which can lead to infection. Newborn girls are especially susceptible to the disease, since they have a short urethra, through which Trichomonas easily penetrate the bladder.
The problem can be diagnosed by taking a vaginal smear and culture. If the disease is confirmed after 12 weeks of pregnancy, the doctor sometimes prescribes drugs - imidazole derivatives. They are taken in short courses, which is not effective enough, but is necessary during pregnancy. Up to 12 weeks, treatment is carried out with vaginal medications (Ginezol, Clotrimazole, etc.). The drugs must be prescribed to both partners.
Vaginal tablets Clotrimazole is prescribed before 12 weeks of pregnancy Chlamydia
Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted disease genitourinary system, the causative agents of which are chlamydia. First, they infect the mucous membranes of the body, after which they enter the epithelium and harm immune cells.
Chlamydia is detected in 10% of women registered for pregnancy at the antenatal clinic.
During pregnancy, the presence of chlamydia can be determined by the following signs:
- discomfort when urinating;
- itching in the vagina;
- pain in the pelvic area;
- yellowish increased discharge.
One of the signs of chlamydia is pain in the pelvic area Scientists have come to the conclusion that it has negative impact during pregnancy and can cause infertility. Due to the disease, the fallopian tubes become inflamed and the adhesive process begins. With chlamydia, the expectant mother is exposed to the following diseases:
- Reiter's syndrome (urethritis, conjunctivitis, arthritis);
- urethral stricture (narrowing urethra due to cicatricial changes in the urethral mucosa);
- fetal death in early pregnancy or premature birth in late pregnancy (due to placental insufficiency, leading to poor oxygen supply to the fetus);
- inflammatory processes in the pelvic organs (endometritis, salpingitis, etc.).
It's just small part health problems caused by the disease. If a woman suffered from chlamydia during pregnancy, then the baby, at best, will be born with slight muscle tone. In the worst case, the disease can cause severe damage nervous system. There is a high probability that a child of an infected mother will be born with the following symptoms:
- low body weight;
- iron deficiency anemia;
- vitamin deficiency.
If chlamydia appears late in pregnancy, the baby may become infected. Most often the kidneys, liver, and pancreas are affected.
To diagnose the disease, smears are taken from a pregnant woman. In some cases, an analysis of fetal infection is necessary, for which amniotic fluid is collected. Often, with chlamydia, other microbes are present in a woman’s body, so the doctor conducts a general examination. After this, in accordance with identified problems appointed drug treatment. Most often, the doctor prescribes macrolide antibiotics.
If chlamydia occurs, the expectant mother should not self-medicate, as this is dangerous for both the fetus and her.
Gonorrhea
Gonorrhea is an infectious disease caused by gonococcal bacteria. It can occur at expectant mother asymptomatic, but sometimes a woman notices the following signs:
- urination, accompanied by pain and frequent urge;
- nagging pain in the lower abdomen;
- vaginal green or yellow discharge;
- spotting, sometimes bleeding.
Gonorrhea is an infectious disease caused by gonococcal bacteria Chronic course The disease develops in a woman after the birth of a child. In this case, there is a high probability of gonococci entering the blood (sepsis). Due to this complication, damage to the nervous system is possible, respiratory tract, joints, development of cardiovascular pathologies. Infection with gonorrhea in the second half of pregnancy can lead to gonococcal arthritis.
As for the baby, the infection cannot bring him any danger, but its presence next to the child is far from safe. When infected in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, gonococcus provokes inflammation in the uterus, which can lead to miscarriage. If bacteria enter the body of a pregnant woman after the 20th week of pregnancy, intrauterine infection of the baby may occur, which is manifested by gonococcal sepsis and chorioamnionitis (inflammation in the membrane of the membranes), which often causes early rupture of amniotic fluid.
The baby can become infected while passing through the birth canal. In this case, the eyes of the child suffer, who may remain blind. Gonorrhea is diagnosed by taking a smear from the vagina of the expectant mother. Most often, when a disease is detected, a woman is given the antibiotic Ceftriaxone intramuscularly once. If sepsis develops, the dosage of this drug is calculated for several days (approximately a week).
Typically, gonorrhea occurs together with chlamydia, so the doctor may additionally prescribe Erythromycin orally.
Nonspecific inflammation as a cause of yellow discharge
Nonspecific diseases, which are characterized by yellow discharge, also occur in a pregnant woman. Let's look at the most common of them.
Colpitis
During pregnancy, many women experience. Changes in hormonal levels and low levels of immune defense can lead to this problem, which is otherwise called “vaginitis.” This is an inflammation of the mucous membrane of the cervix with profuse white, yellow or pale gray discharge, accompanied by an unpleasant odor of rotten fish. In some cases, heavy discharge does not appear, and the disease is asymptomatic. Usually you can find out about its presence after taking a smear from the vagina for microflora.
On initial stage diseases bacteria spread throughout the vagina and cervix, then can move to the uterus and lead to premature birth. With this disease, a woman recovers poorly after childbirth, and the sutures applied often take a long time to heal and tend to fester. Vaginitis entails the following problems:
- infection of the placenta, which leads to the following disorders:
- problem in the normal functioning of the placenta;
- improper metabolism of nutrients;
- inadequate exchange of oxygen between mother and baby;
- infection of the amniotic fluid, and, as a result, the development of the following problems:
- weakened immunity;
- pneumonia;
- developmental delays in the baby;
- infection of the fetus, which can lead to its death.
Vaginitis is treated using medications, which are different in each case and depend on the type of disease and the woman’s trimester of pregnancy. 
Vaginitis is treated using medications, which are different in each case and depend on the type of disease and the woman’s trimester of pregnancy.
If colpitis is detected at the end of the term, the expectant mother undergoes a procedure for sanitation of the birth canal, which will protect the child from infection and help him be born healthy.
Cervicitis
Cervicitis is an inflammation of the cervical canal. The cause of its occurrence is various pathogens (Escherichia coli, Candida fungi, gardnarella, bacteria, etc.). This infection can quickly spread throughout the body of a pregnant woman, so it is especially dangerous. Because of this, the following can happen:
- miscarriage;
- fetal freezing;
- intrauterine underdevelopment.
Usually the disease occurs in conjunction with other infections, so its treatment is complex and always individual. Cervicitis is characterized by the following manifestations:
- mucous- purulent discharge;
- itching and burning in the vagina.
Cervicitis is characterized by itching and burning in the vagina Vaginal candidiasis
Vaginal candidiasis - inflammatory disease vagina and genital tract, caused by fungi of the genus Candida. Otherwise known as thrush, it is characterized by a curdled white or yellowish discharge that may increase as the disease progresses. 
Vaginal candidiasis is an inflammatory disease of the vagina and genital tract caused by fungi of the genus Candida.
In addition to curdled discharge, the expectant mother may experience the following manifestations:
- pain when urinating;
- redness and swelling of the vagina;
- vaginal burning and itching.
The problem can be determined using a smear on the vaginal microflora or bacterial culture. In case of illness, the doctor prescribes systemic antifungal drugs local drugs(usually Nystatin suppositories), and also recommends taking local antiseptics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
If you have thrush, you cannot self-medicate - only a doctor will prescribe effective therapy.
Thrush caught me by surprise in the last month of pregnancy. Not only was it already difficult to move, but these unpleasant sensations were also added. The doctor prescribed me suppositories - I don’t remember what they are called. After that, my condition got better, but still not completely. The thrush did not affect the newborn baby, but I treated it for several months after the birth.
Other reasons
Yellow discharge may not always indicate the presence of an infection. Sometimes they are associated with completely different reasons.
Allergic reactions
White-yellow profuse discharge in a pregnant woman sometimes occurs as a result of an allergic reaction. Usually, you may notice irritation of the skin or mucous membrane on the external genitalia. With such symptoms, the expectant mother should urgently consult a doctor who will determine the allergen. For the problem to disappear, you need to eliminate its contact with the woman’s skin. Most often, allergies in expectant mothers occur when using the following things and products:
- gels for intimate hygiene;
- panty liners;
- any skin care cosmetics.
Intimate hygiene products can cause allergies in the vagina and cause yellow discharge During pregnancy, allergies may appear to things that were previously used without problems.
During pregnancy, especially during recent months, I had vaginal irritation like an allergic reaction. I quickly realized that this was the problem, because when I saw the panty liner I felt sick: it was rubbing against intimate place, causing discomfort. I decided to replace it, and only then, if there was no result, go to the doctor. Instead of the notorious pads, I bought special wipes for intimate hygiene, which are completely natural. In principle, you could do without them by using regular toilet paper. After getting rid of the pads, everything immediately went away, and I was joyful and happy again.
Leakage of amniotic fluid
In the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, a woman may notice a light yellowish discharge -
After positive result A pregnancy test changes your lifestyle, habits, and even your thinking. Every new day, a pregnant woman’s body changes, the baby inside the uterus grows and adapts the mother’s capabilities to its needs.
At some moments, training contractions and sometimes pain may appear. Some symptoms are temporary, while others are a warning sign. Yellow discharge during pregnancy in the second trimester, a woman who is worried about the health of her baby should be alerted.
An increase in secretion on the vaginal mucosa in the second trimester is normal. However, if the discharge is deep yellow, green color with an unpleasant and persistent smell of rotten fish or fungus, this already indicates the presence of pathology. Hospitalization is required, treatment only in the gynecology department under the supervision of a doctor.
Important
During inpatient treatment, daily monitoring of the baby's heartbeat is used. It is normal to listen to the baby’s movements and heartbeat on the cardiogram twice a day.
Causes of yellow discharge
Only a doctor can tell whether this is normal or pathological. However, yellowish discharge even without pain and other symptomatic manifestations are pathological condition, which can cause complications in the future.
Most common reasons, which may produce a yellowish consistency in the second trimester of pregnancy:
- Thrush. IN in this case It is worth talking about the bacterial type of thrush, to which, apparently, a secondary infection was attached. Thrush itself does not provoke yellow or beige discharge; this color is given only by pathogenic microorganisms - gonococcus, staphylococcus, gonorrhea, trichomonas. If immune defense weak, then during pregnancy the mother’s body cannot cope with the fight against infections, infection occurs faster, the symptoms are pronounced and rapidly developing.
- Diseases of the genitourinary system. Kidney disease or infectious formations in genitourinary organs, which can also develop upon contact with a carrier of the disease, provoke the development of inflammation and purulent processes. Stagnation of pus in urinary tract accompanied by pain, pain and bloody purulent discharge. A pregnant woman cannot help but notice this condition.
- Genital herpes. Herpes contracted during pregnancy means 99% infection of the fetus and, as a result, death or developmental disorders.
- Dysbacteriosis. As practice shows, dysbiosis rarely provokes the formation of yellow discharge, but there is a possibility. Most often, the discharge is thick white, with mucus and a pinkish tint. For a number of these reasons, this basis is the least safe for the fetus, since the spread of symptoms does not occur through the placenta, and the fetus does not risk dying. However, dysbacteriosis can cause irritation, itching and tissue damage, which provokes the formation of thick consistencies. The yellowish tint is a manifestation of mixed blood from damaged tissues, and not the result of the growth of an infection.
Important
Vaccination before pregnancy can protect a woman from most dangerous diseases, however, some vaccinations can cause complications such as infertility, so before vaccination you need to familiarize yourself with possible consequences, including negative ones.
It is noteworthy that even E. coli can provoke the formation of thick discharge with an unpleasant odor in a pregnant woman. The cervix has not yet shortened in the second trimester, and therefore premature birth caused by infection is a fatal risk for both mother and child.
White-yellow
Yellow discharge is already a kind of danger signal, a manifestation of complications that only a doctor can determine. White-yellow secretions indicate the presence of an inflammatory process in birth canal. The process is complicated by the fact that possible infectious diseases are not immediately identified; diagnosis will take time; the incubation period of bacteria is also a danger to proper development child.
Important
If a woman observes liquid secretions in the second trimester with a characteristic liver-sweet odor, this may indicate leakage of amniotic fluid. Leakage before 34 weeks is a risk for the baby, so it is necessary to promptly identify and eliminate the cause of this condition.
Light yellow discharge in the second trimester of pregnancy is a pathology, deviation from the norm, which must be determined in a timely manner. With an increased amount of estrogen in the blood, there is a change in the consistency of secretions, which become more liquid, transparent, white with a yellow tint. To monitor the condition and determine the diagnosis, a blood test is taken on an empty stomach without eating (before 9 am).
Additionally, the obstetrician prescribes:
- cardiogram;
- hCG control;
- study of the qualitative composition of urine;
- liver hormones;
- thyroid hormones.
Interestingly, allergic reactions in pregnant women occur quite often. Manifestations include a rash on the genitals, irritation and redness, increased secretion with a changed color. Treatment is symptomatic after changing hygiene products.
If yellow
Yellow or dark secretions with a thick consistency are a sign dangerous disease for mother and child. Diseases that provoke the appearance of such colored discharge are trichomoniasis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis and staphylococcal infection.
Important
A common cause of white discharge during pregnancy is the presence of erosions or cervicitis - inflammation of the upper cervical area near the cervix. The skin here is delicate, any inflammation is accompanied by the release of an increased amount of secretions.
Depending on the symptomatic phenomena and stage of the disease, the fetus has negative effects:
- deformities;
- pathologies of the kidneys, heart;
- diseases of the reproductive system;
- disorders of the brain and circulatory systems;
- disorders of the pancreas.
Important
Any infections suffered by the mother during the embryonic period affect the child’s health to a greater or lesser extent. That's why additional diagnostics And antibacterial therapy may not always be able to help resolve the issue.
Highlights worth paying attention to
Yellow secretions are, unfortunately, almost always the result of infection and spread of pathogenic microorganisms on the internal genital organs of a woman. Why does the yellow color specifically appear, what explains this?
The yellow color of secretions in the vagina in the second trimester is usually pus. Pus in its structure is dead cells, leukocytes, which were produced by the body to eliminate pathogenic microbacteria, bacteria or infection.
The composition of yellow discharge during the period embryonic development fruit includes:
- leukocytes or “useful” protective cells of the mother’s body;
- necrotic (dead) cells of organs on which infection has formed;
- microbes or infection cells against which the dead leukocytes worked;
- macrophages.
All these components, and in particular their quantity, indicate that there is a focus of inflammatory nature on the internal genital organs, and the larger the area of damage, the greater the amount of discharge, the brighter and more saturated the color.
Points that you should definitely pay attention to:
- yellow secretion with an unpleasant odor;
- viscous and thick leucorrhoea with a yellow tint;
- bleeding in any quantity with green mucous formations;
- brown secretions mixed with blood and pus;
- leucorrhoea of thick consistency with the smell of fish;
- sweet-smelling compartments of white, yellow, pink or green hue.
The body of a pregnant woman devotes all its strength to the development of the child, its life support, and therefore uses this weakening of protection pathogenic flora, which grows with progression and, in the absence of correct resistance, damages the tissues of the mucous membranes.
Important
Purulent discharge in the second and third trimester cannot be treated at home; hospitalization is required for the reason that Constant monitoring of the condition of the baby inside the uterus is necessary.
Yellow secretory discharge at any stage of pregnancy is a signal for action, diagnosis and treatment, but in the second and third trimester it is also a danger to the child’s life. Most dangerous secretions yellow color accompanied by:
- redness of the labia;
- increased temperature;
- the appearance of pain in the kidneys, back, lower back;
- clouding of consciousness;
- itching and pain when touching water;
- burning during hygiene procedures;
- swelling of the external genital organs;
- decrease in basal body temperature.
Such symptoms indicate that the disease causes intoxication in the body, the temperature rises instantly, bleeding can develop within a few hours, the life of the mother and child is in danger.
Risk factors for infection in a pregnant woman are, in most cases, unprotected sex, changing sexual partners, and poor personal hygiene. All of the above reasons can become the basis for the development of a dangerous disease. Unfortunately, the mortality rate of the fetus inside the womb in case of infection with the same gonorrhea is 98%.
Women and and are a consequence of hormonal changes, stress or. The nature of their appearance varies, as does their quantity and consistency. A woman in a pregnant position needs to be attentive to her body, know the norms and pathologies of secretion, the reasons for immediately contacting a doctor, as well as possible measures prevention.
Reasons for appearance
Yellow discharge during early pregnancy does not pose a threat to either the expectant mother or the baby. The reason for the appearance of yellowish secretion during this period is the formation of a mucous plug in the cervix, which protects the fetus from exposure negative factors. There is no need to worry about these excesses, since it is thanks to them that the body is able to maintain pregnancy.
Yellow discharge during pregnancy, which can appear in the second trimester, is typical for many representatives of the fairer sex. This is due to the active growth and development of the baby and changes in the body of the expectant mother. Intense secretion or rash may even be caused by by usual means hygiene or sanitary pads. In this case, it is necessary to replace these products and monitor the further reaction of the body.
Abundant yellow discharge during pregnancy during the 1st and 2nd trimester can also be witnessed:
- the presence of an inflammatory process in the ovarian area or in fallopian tubes Oh;
- pathogenic microflora in a woman's body;
- unprotected sex;
- ignoring personal hygiene.
Important! Interspersed urine may cause yellowing of the secretion in the second trimester of pregnancy, associated with the growth of the fetus and its pressure on the bladder.
Yellow mucous discharge several weeks before the start of the process indicates the removal of the plug and is the first sign of approaching labor. You must notify your obstetrician-gynecologist about such secretion. 
Abundant light yellow clear discharge without a sharp unpleasant odor during pregnancy, which does not cause discomfort, can accompany the entire period of gestation and not bring any negative consequences. However, in any case, they must be reported to the supervising doctor.
Did you know? The first discharge with bloody veins may appear on the day of fertilization, when the egg undergoes the process of implantation into the wall of the uterus. Not abundant secretion, as a rule, is observed a week before the expected start of the menstrual cycle.
Norm or pathology
Clear or white discharge, called leucorrhoea, is normal during pregnancy. Slight yellowness in the secretion, which is not accompanied by itching, burning, or an unpleasant odor, may also be normal and may indicate, for example, increased production of the hormone progesterone. 
An increase in secretion in the cervix to form a mucus plug is also not a pathology and accompanies pregnancy after the embryo has been fixed.
The same is accompanied by discharges such unpleasant symptoms, such as swelling of the labia, itching, burning, unusual odor and change in the shade of secretion.
Important! Allergic reactions to any irritants, they can also manifest themselves in the form of yellow discharge. This could be an allergy to synthetic underwear, hygiene products, panty liners or washing powder.
The presence of an unpleasant odor may be a sign of inflammation of the fallopian tubes or ovaries. The pathology may be accompanied by deterioration of the pregnant woman’s condition, weakness, elevated temperature bodies and pain syndromes at the bottom . 
Dark yellow, yellow-green, bubbling discharge during pregnancy also indicates the development of certain pathologies.
When to go to the doctor
In the presence of pathological signs It is necessary to contact your doctor:
- beige discharge may indicate progesterone deficiency;
- an abundant white secretion with a curd consistency, accompanied by itching or burning, indicates the development of candidiasis ();
- Excessive yellow discharge indicates the presence of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), such as gonorrhea;
- a green tint of secretion may be a sign of inflammation of the genitourinary system (cervix, fallopian tubes, ovaries, vagina), STDs, vaginal microflora disorders and bacterial infections;
- dark brown discharge may be a sign of such serious problems, How: ectopic or frozen pregnancy; placental abruption; damage to the cervix; formation of polyps; risk of miscarriage; attachment of the fetus to the wall of the uterus; removal of the plug;
- liquid bloody secretion is the most dangerous sign manifestations of pathology and can occur when ectopic pregnancy, placental abruption or miscarriage.
Important! If you notice brown or bloody discharge, you must immediately call an ambulance medical care.
Preventive measures
To reduce the risk of developing pathologies during pregnancy, a woman should take care of rest, reducing physical activity, proper vitamin intake and minimizing stressful situations. 
Some preventative ways to maintain a healthy pregnancy include:
- washing at least twice a day;
- using condoms during sexual intercourse;
- use of high-quality personal hygiene products (gels and wipes);
- preference for comfortable underwear made from natural fabrics (it is advisable not to wear tight thong panties).
Did you know? If a pregnant woman has cervical erosion, bloody secretion may occur after sexual intercourse or gynecological examination women due to the vulnerability of the mucous membrane.
Only the attending physician can determine the cause of discharge during pregnancy, so if there are any signs of secretion development, you should contact a gynecologist and talk about the symptoms.
If the pathology is detected in a timely manner, the doctor will prescribe an examination and optimal treatment, which will help preserve the health of the expectant mother and the life of the baby.
As a rule, expectant mothers become very frightened if they experience or increase vaginal discharge. However, this fear is quite understandable, because in some cases, discharge is the first sign of serious problems. For example, they can be symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy, premature placental abruption, the threat of spontaneous abortion and other troubles. However, there is no need to panic ahead of time. After all, very often vaginal discharge during pregnancy does not pose any danger to the development of the fetus and the health of the woman.
Main types of vaginal discharge in pregnant women
During pregnancy, women most often experience several types of vaginal discharge. Let's take a closer look at them.
Light yellow discharge during pregnancy
They are often present in the first three months of pregnancy. Their appearance is explained high level progesterone in a woman's body. Under the influence of this hormone, blood flow to the pelvic organs increases, which contributes to the appearance of discharge. Thus, this type of vaginal discharge is the norm for pregnant women - however, provided that it is mucous in nature, odorless and not accompanied by itching of the external genitalia.
White or white-yellow discharge during pregnancy
This type of discharge, which has a cheesy consistency, is usually a symptom of candidiasis (thrush). Often the appearance of such discharge is accompanied by severe itching of the external genitalia. In this case, the woman should definitely consult a gynecologist, since not all drugs for the treatment of thrush can be taken in the early stages of pregnancy.
Yellow discharge during pregnancy
Quite often, women in the first and third trimesters of pregnancy experience urine leakage caused by increased level progesterone - this is what causes yellow discharge. In this case, there is no reason to worry - such vaginal discharge is considered normal.
However, if yellow discharge during pregnancy is combined with itching and burning, which intensifies when urinating, then you should not postpone a visit to the doctor. In this case, it is necessary to take a smear and exclude the presence of sexually transmitted diseases, for example, gonorrhea.
Bloody issues
Appearance bloody discharge from the vagina - it's always very warning sign, which may be the first symptom of spontaneous miscarriage or placental abruption.
In addition, yellow-brown discharge during pregnancy can occur if the fertilized egg peels off slightly from the wall of the uterus. This is where you can’t hesitate - you need to see a doctor urgently!
Dark yellow discharge during pregnancy
These discharges often occur against the background inflammatory processes genitals caused by various pathogens - this effect is given, for example, by staphylococci, E. coli, Proteus, diplococci, etc. They often have a sharp, unpleasant odor. In most cases, the infection enters a woman’s body before pregnancy. Therefore, it is very important to take a responsible approach to planning, and at this stage to examine and cure all such diseases.
Yellow-green discharge during pregnancy
As a rule, yellow-green discharge is accompanied by various infectious diseases - gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, chlamydia, bacterial vaginosis and some others. These vaginal discharges usually have an unpleasant and sometimes even pungent odor, and sometimes streaks of blood can be discerned in them. They are usually accompanied by severe itching of the external genitalia and pain and burning when urinating. Yellow-green discharge is also a reason to urgently consult a doctor.
Conclusion
Thus, only light yellow and yellow vaginal discharge can be considered normal during pregnancy. And then, only if they are mucous in nature, odorless and not accompanied by itching and burning of the external genitalia.
In all other cases, it is necessary to contact a gynecologist to determine the exact cause of their appearance and prescribe proper treatment.
