What Can Be Considered “Normal Vaginal Discharge” or “Leukorrhea”?

Vaginal discharge (medically known asleukorrhea), refers to the natural secretions that are released from a woman’s vagina. These secretions are responsible for lubrication and the prevention of infection. The type, color, and volume of discharge varies from person to person, as well as time based on the individual’s menstrual cycle. However, vaginal discharge generally follows this timeline:

  • Days 1-5 of the menstrual cycle: The time when menstrual bleeding takes place

  • Days 6-14 of the menstrual cycle: Discharge is  generally, usually milky white or yellowish in color, and rather sticky in consistency

  • Days 14-25 of the menstrual cycle: Discharge is influenced by ovulation therefore smooth and runny (similar in texture and color to egg whites) initially and then returns to the former milky white or yellowish color once ovulation is complete

  • Days 25-28 of the menstrual cycle: Discharge reduce and halt altogether as the monthly menstrual bleeding begins
