How should a healthy vagina look?

The average length of the vagina in a calm state reaches 7-9 cm. During the sexual act, as well as with delivery, the length of the vagina increases, and it can reach 12-16 cm.
The walls of the vagina should normally have a uniform color. Most often they are pale pink. However, it should be noted that when carrying a baby they can acquire a cyanotic shade, which is not a violation.
Vaginal walls are densely covered with glands that produce a certain kind of lubrication. It is she who is allocated at the sexual certificate or act and at the moment of excitation of the girl, promoting normal course of sexual process.
The amount of secreted cervical mucus from a healthy vagina is small. At the same time, it is always transparent, odorless.
