Does cervical mucus plug always flow?

Cervical mucus plug

is a physiological phenomenon. It is mainly produced by the glands in the cervical canal and plays a specific role in the female physiological cycle. During non-pregnancy, it plays a role in protecting the cervix and preventing pathogens such as bacteria from ascending.

During pregnancy, especially near childbirth, cervical mucus plug changes. As the cervix matures and expands, mucus plug may fall off, showing an increase in vaginal secretions, but this is usually a one-time shedding rather than a continuous outflow.

If abnormal continuous outflow of cervical mucus plug material occurs, or accompanied by other abnormal symptoms such as bleeding, abdominal pain, odor, etc., seek medical attention promptly for detailed examination and evaluation to determine whether there is pathological conditions.
