Once your daughter’s menstrual cycle begins, she’s going to notice some other bodily changes as well. Because of a rise in estrogen levels, which stimulates the vaginal tissue and the glands in the vagina, she is going to experience more secretions and lubrication. In fact, a small amount of non-odorous vaginal discharge is normal. During this time frame, a girl’s vagina also becomes colonized by “good” bacteria. These are known as lactobacillus bacteria, and they are essential in balancing the environment in the vagina and warding off infections.
