Some women are concerned about the amount of vaginal discharge they get. It may seem excessive, but there is no need to worry about it. A healthy woman's body produces an average of 1-4ml of discharge within a 24-hour period. You can visualize this amount by filling a syringe with coloured water and squirting it out onto a cloth. This parameter varies on a case-by-case basis; that is, the amount can exceed 4 ml and still not be indicative of a problem.
It is worth remembering that the amount of discharge sometimes increases significantly during ovulation, pregnancy, and oral contraceptive intake.
If you are having more cervical mucus than usual, or if there is itching, odor, or pain during sex, be sure to consult a doctor.
