Discharge that is different than usual can be caused by a shift in the natural balance and an overgrowth of bacteria or yeast.
Clumpy white discharge usually indicates a yeast infection. Since fungi like warm, dark, moist environments, anything that makes your intimate zone sweaty can bring one on.
Grey discharge accompanied by a fishy odor and burning sensation could indicate bacterial vaginosis (BV). If you suspect you have a vaginal infection, visit your doctor or gynecologist.

I’ve been having excessive vaginal discharges ever since I’ve entered menopause. Is this normal?
Posted by Perrigo Admin | | No CommentsExcessive vaginal discharge can be a sign of a vaginal infection. This is particularly common among menopausal women due to hormonal imbalances that make the vagina more prone to bacterial infection. Ask your doctor or gynecologist for advice about medication for vaginal infections.
Does every woman who goes through menopause experience vaginal dryness, or is this just a myth?
Posted by Perrigo Admin | | No CommentsVaginal dryness among menopausal women is not a myth. When you go through menopause, you will experience a hormonal shift that includes a drop in estrogen levels.
A drop in estrogen levels causes the vaginal walls to get thinner and drier. A reduction in lubricant production by your mucus membranes results in vaginal dryness.
Some women take hormone supplements to rebalance after this shift. Lactacyd Pharma Moisturizing has an adapted pH and contains moisturizing ingredients to bring extra hydration to the intimate zone.
When your body enters menopause it produces less estrogen. This causes the vaginal walls to become thinner and drier, and a reduction in lubricant production by your mucus membranes results in vaginal dryness. Due to the decrease in estrogen the pH of your intimate zone goes up. This reduces the vagina’s natural acidic protection and makes you more vulnerable to irritation and itching. Your intimate zone needs extra care.

If I’m pregnant and I get a vaginal infection, should I worry about my baby?
Posted by Perrigo Admin | | No CommentsMost vaginal infections in pregnant women will not hurt the baby. Yeast infections during pregnancy do not normally travel up into the uterus to harm the baby in any way. Any concerns related to these infections have mainly to do with the mother’s discomfort due to itching and soreness.
Recent research has shown that bacterial vaginosis (BV) increases the chance of premature birth or miscarriage1. If you suspect that you have a vaginal infection while pregnant, see your doctor.
Pregnant women are ten times more prone to vaginal infection than are non-pregnant women. Hormone levels go up during pregnancy, which disrupts the normal vaginal environment, enabling the growth of bad bacteria. So if you’re expecting, visit your doctor regularly for prevention or immediate cure of any vaginal infection.
