From the beginning of pregnancy, women's HCG levels will increase, leading to the production of progesterone and amniotic fluid. Amniotic fluid is very important for the fetus. If there is too much or not enough amniotic fluid, the fetus may experience hypoxia. So pregnant women need to have their amniotic fluid checked every month during prenatal check ups, and if it's not enough, it needs to be replenished in a timely manner. So, will amniotic fluid become viscous?
Amniotic fluid is colorless and odorless, and clean amniotic fluid is relatively clear, so it will not be sticky. The large amount of viscous discharge that women experience during pregnancy is vaginal discharge, not amniotic fluid. After pregnancy, women's immunity will decrease and hormones will change, so secretions will also increase. As long as there are no abnormal conditions in the body and there is no pain or itching in the lower body, there is no need to worry.
If amniotic fluid is contaminated, its color will change to yellow or yellow green, and there may be some odor. This contaminated amniotic fluid is very dangerous for the fetus and can easily lead to fetal hypoxia. So once the amniotic fluid of a pregnant woman is contaminated, appropriate measures need to be taken to solve the problem. If it is within the due date, a cesarean section can be used to deliver the baby first.
Overall, amniotic fluid is not sticky, and even contaminated amniotic fluid only undergoes changes in color and odor. Pregnant women need to pay attention to rest more, maintain hygiene in the lower body, and have a light diet, so that the secretion in the body will also decrease accordingly.
