Due to the infection of fungi, germs, such white water flow is a problem. In addition to that, if the husband or wife has an infection, such a problem also occurs due to sexual contact.


White discharge is also a problem in cases of uterine problems and urinary tract infections. If there is an infection in the uterus and urinary tract, such a problem occurs. Even in case of cervical cancer, there is a problem of rapid infection of germs and white discharge.


Women also experience lower abdominal pain when white water flows. After menopause in women, there is a lack of hormone called estrogen, which causes problems such as weak bones, mood changes, vaginal discharge and extremely dry and itchy genitals.
