White discharge reason after period

The answer to this is very simple, which we are explaining below in a sequential manner -

• The reproductive system receives signals from the brain and ovaries during the menstrual cycle.
• Due to this, the levels of female sex hormones estrogen and progesterone keep on fluctuating in each phase of the menstrual cycle.
• At the same time, the fluid that comes out of the vagina, which is produced by the glands of the cervix and vagina, affects the change of these hormones.
• Due to this, a few days after the end of menstrual bleeding, the level of estrogen starts increasing and there is a white discharge. Also, the body starts getting ready for ovulation.
