Love juice is a normal vaginal secretion produced by women when they are sexually aroused. If the love juice changes color and becomes brown or yellow, it may be a sign of a vaginal infection
Physiologically normal, love juice is the liquid secreted at the entrance to a woman’s vagina. It causes a feeling of humidity and its role is essential for sexual arousal. It allows lubrication.
What is the definition of love juice?
Vaginal lubrication or love juice is a vaginal secretionsecreted at the entrance to the vagina by the Bartholin and Cooper glands when the woman is in a state of sexual arousal. It causes a feeling of humidity and its role is essential to sexuality. “The term “vaginal lubrication” is preferred to that of cyprine which is more colloquial language, or even a pornographic connotation.“, explains in the preamble Dr Odile Bagot, gynecologist.
What is the normal color of love juice?
Doctor Bagot specifies that “cyprin is a fluid a priori translucent and cannot be isolated from physiological leukorrhea (normal white discharge)”. From one woman to another and depending on the period of her life, the appearance and quantity of love juice vary.
What does yellow-colored love juice mean?
If the love juice changes color and becomes brown or yellow, this may be a sign of an abnormality or a vaginal infection and this should be the subject of a medical consultation with a gynecologist for example. Same thing if it suddenly changes smell.
What is the cause of too acidic love juice?
The acidity of cyprin is generally due to the presence and activity of lactobacilli, which are the majority micro-organisms of the vaginal flora. These bacteria secrete lactic acid, which causes the natural acidification of the vaginal environment and a drop in vaginal pH. Too acidic cyprin can have a foul or fishy odor, be gray or green in color or be accompanied by itching in the vagina. Taking probiotics can help lower the acidity of love juice.
What is cyprin made of?
Love juice contains water, urea, lactic acid, aldehydes and ketones as well as numerous bacterial microorganisms (bacterial flora) which protect against infections.
“The liquid is produced mainly by transudation of the vaginal wall (droplets pearl from the wall) and incidentally secreted by the Bartholin and Cooper glands in the event of sexual arousal.” explains Doctor Odile Bagot. Cyprine is mainly produced by the vaginal mucosa in its distal third, i.e. deep in the vaginawhich explains why it takes some time for it to reach the vulva.
What is cyprin used for? To lubricate?
The function of cyprin is to lubricate the walls of the vagina and the labia minora to promote penetration during sexual intercourse. Many factors (time of the menstrual cycle, diet, infection, drug use, etc.) can change the texture, odor and color of this secretion. Although it mixes with it, this liquid should not be confused with vaginal discharge.
Do men make love juice?
Love juice is sometimes compared with the man’s pre-seminal fluid. Wrongly, according to the doctor who explains that we will then rather discuss an “ejaculation” of fluid coming from the Skene glands (behind the urethra about two phalanges from the exit of the vagina) at the time of orgasm. These glands also have a common embryonic origin with the prostate.
Can you be allergic to love juice?
If there is an allergy to sperm, an allergy to love juice is rarer. The only solution during sexual intercourse is to use a condom. An allergy to cyprin, as with any sexual allergy, manifests itself by itching, burning, or redness on the genitals. If symptoms appear, it is advisable to consult a urologist or dermatologist to get examined to find out what it is.
What to do if you don’t produce enough love juice?
When natural vaginal lubrication is not sufficient, we speak of vaginal dryness, which causes discomfort or pain. This can have several causes and be due to a lack of excitement or desire, but also to drug treatment, infection, excessive hygiene, or menopause. Indeed, during menopause, the volume of Bartholin’s glands regresses and their activity decreases, which can lead to insufficient lubrication. A lubricating gel can easily be used to remedy vaginal dryness. Better to choose a water-based gel, compatible with condoms.
