Leucorrhea is a female discharge that is mainly composed of mucosal exudate, cervical canal and endometrial gland secretions. The formation of leucorrhea is closely related to estrogen, prepubertal girls are generally without leucorrhoea, after puberty the ovaries begin to develop and secrete estrogen, and then leucorrhea begins. The quality and quantity of leucorrhea will change with the change of the menstrual cycle, generally in the middle of two menstruations (equivalent to ovulation), the secretion of estrogen reaches its peak, too much estrogen stimulates the uterine gland to secrete more mucus, so at this time, the amount of leucorrhoea is large, transparent, like egg white, viscous and can be drawn into a filament, mainly playing the role of lubrication, but also to keep the moisture of the first wall, reduce the friction of the front and back walls, and play a certain protective role in the first wall.
