Vaginal secretions are primarily from the uterus, cervix, and transudation of the vaginal epithelium in addition to minuscule vaginal lubrication from the Bartholin's glands upon sexual arousal.
Vaginal transudation, which initially forms as sweat-like droplets, is caused by vascular engorgement of the vagina ( vasocongestion ), resulting in the pressure inside the capillaries increasing the transudation of plasma through the vaginal epithelium.
