Vaginal discharge is a mixture of liquid, cells, and bacteria that lubricate and protect the vagina. [1] [2] This mixture is constantly produced by the cells of the vagina and cervix, and it exits the body through the vaginal opening.
Mucopurulent discharge, the emission or secretion of fluid containing mucus and pus; Nipple discharge, the release of fluid from the nipples of the breasts; Rectal discharge, fluid released from the anus; Emotional discharge, in co-counselling, the ways in which pent-up emotional hurt can be released, e.g. via crying, laughter, etc.
A discharge is a measure of the quantity of any fluid flow over unit time. The quantity may be either volume or mass. Thus the water discharge of a tap (faucet) can be measured with a measuring jug and a stopwatch. Here the discharge might be 1 litre per 15 seconds, equivalent to 67 ml/second or 4 litres/minute. This is an average measure.
Rivers with an average discharge of 5,000 m 3 /s or greater, as a fraction of the estimated global total. This article lists rivers by their average discharge measured in descending order of their water flow rate. Here, only those rivers whose discharge is more than 2,000 m 3 /s (71,000 cu ft/s) are shown. It can be thought of as a list of the ...
In a nozzle or other constriction, the discharge coefficient (also known as coefficient of discharge or efflux coefficient) is the ratio of the actual discharge to the ideal discharge, [1] i.e., the ratio of the mass flow rate at the discharge end of the nozzle to that of an ideal nozzle which expands an identical working fluid from the same initial conditions to the same exit pressures.
A corona discharge is an electrical discharge caused by the ionization of a fluid such as air surrounding a conductor carrying a high voltage. It represents a local region where the air (or other fluid) has undergone electrical breakdown and become conductive, allowing charge to continuously leak off the conductor into the air.

Vaginal lubrication fluid is a plasma transudate which diffuses across the vaginal wall. Composition varies with length of arousal. [1]During arousal, vaginal lubrication, also sometimes called "arousal fluid", is produced.
