Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER. I am glad you reached out to our community with your question.

Likoria or leukorrhea is a white or yellowish vaginal discharge.

It may be a symptom of a disorder either in the reproductive organs or elsewhere in the body.

The glands of the vagina normally secrete a certain amount of mucus like fluid that moistens the vaginal membranes. This is often increased at the time of ovulation and before a menstrual period, and it is also stimulated by sexual excitement, whether or not coitus takes place.

Excessive discharge, however, may indicate an abnormal condition. A yellow or creamy white discharge, especially if it is thick, often contains pus and provides evidence of an infection. A thinner discharge, such as one that seems to be clear mucus, usually indicates that the disorder is chronic, but of less significance.

The hymen is a membrane that surrounds or partially covers the external vaginal opening.

Normal likoria should have no effect on the hymen.

Regards,
Maryann
