Trying to conceive and noticing more discharge than usual this cycle. Now im wondering kab se discharge starts if pregnant. Maybe im just reading too much into it, pls share.
An increase in vaginal discharge, called leukorrhea, actually starts very early in the first trimester due to high estrogen levels. My doctor explained that it's the body's way of preventing infections. If it becomes foul-smelling or colored, you need to consult your doctor.
Mine started early in the first trimester itself. It never stopped me from doing my daily brisk walking, which my gynac allowed. Just make sure you wear comfortable cotton underwear to stay fresh.
It's so normal to worry about every little change, especially after a long IVF journey. For me, the white discharge started within a couple of weeks after my embryo transfer. Just keep yourself clean and dry, you are doing great.
I noticed the discharge starting around my 5th or 6th week. Since I had thyroid issues, I was already visiting my doctor regularly, so I just confirmed with her that it was normal. Always good to mention these changes during your routine checkups.
I can only share my own experience, but I noticed an increase in thin, milky white discharge right around the week I missed my period. It is apparently normal, but if it smells bad or itches, best to ask your doctor.
