Answer
It's perfectly normal to have increased vaginal discharge during pregnancy. This is often milky white and slightly sticky, and it's called leukorrhea. Think of it as your body's way of keeping things clean and protecting against infection down there. This increased discharge is caused by higher estrogen levels and increased blood flow to the vagina. However, changes in your discharge can sometimes signal an infection.
If you notice a strong or unpleasant odor, itching, burning, or a change in color (especially green, yellow, or gray), it's essential to contact your doctor. These could be signs of a yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, or other infections that need treatment.
