From adolescence onwards, women may experience vaginal discharge, which mainly serves to prevent the upward movement of bacteria and pathogens, providing good protection for the vagina and the health of reproductive organs such as the uterus. Some women may notice a large amount of vaginal discharge on the first day of their menstrual cycle, so why do they have vaginal discharge on the first day of their menstrual cycle?
White discharge on the first day of menstruation is a very normal situation. Generally speaking, white discharge occurs before and after menstruation, so there is no need to worry too much. It is a normal physiological change.
Of course, some women may experience a significant increase in vaginal discharge on the first day of their menstrual cycle, which is considered an abnormal condition. A significant increase in vaginal discharge on the first day of menstruation may be caused by inflammation in the reproductive system. If there is inflammation in the female reproductive system, it may lead to a large number of inflammatory cells, which may be excreted through the vagina. During menstruation, with the arrival of menstrual blood, these inflammatory cells will also be excreted through the vagina, resulting in a significant increase in vaginal discharge.
In summary, the presence of vaginal discharge on the first day of a woman's menstrual cycle may be a normal condition, while excessive vaginal discharge may indicate gynecological inflammation. Women need to take timely care of their health during menstruation, especially paying attention to the hygiene of their private parts. It is best to clean the external genitalia with clean water every day to avoid the growth of bacteria and viruses caused by menstrual blood, which is harmful to women's health.
