This sounds like normal vaginal discharge. I don't think it is leukorrhea, which is a white to yellow viscid discharge from the vagina or uterine cavity, which may be a symptom of a disorder either in the reproductive organs or elsewhere in the body.
The glands of the vagina normally secrete a certain amount of mucus like fluid that moistens the vaginal membranes.
This is often increased at the time of ovulation and before a menstrual period, and it is also stimulated by sexual excitement, whether or not coitus takes place.
Excessive discharge, however, may indicate an abnormal condition. A yellow or creamy white discharge, especially if it is thick, often contains pus and provides evidence of an infection.
A thinner discharge, such as one that seems to be clear mucus, usually indicates that the disorder is chronic, but of less significance.
