I discharge ALOT, is this normal??!


Question: Glands inside your vagina and cervix make small amounts of fluid. This fluid flows out of the vagina each day, carrying out old cells that have lined the vagina. This is your body's way of keeping your vagina healthy and clean. The discharge is usually clear or milky and doesn't smell bad.

The color and thickness of the discharge change with your monthly cycle. The discharge is thicker when you ovulate (when one of your ovaries releases an egg), when a woman is breastfeeding or when you're sexually excited.

Changes that may signal a problem include an increase in the amount of discharge, a change in the color or smell of the discharge, and irritation, itchiness or burning in or around your vagina. This is called vaginitis. A discharge that's stained with blood when you're not having your period could also be a sign of a problem. Some other types of infections such as yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis and trichomoniasis can also cause discharge that is usually accompanied by odor such as beer/yeast/fish.

I would recommend that if you have any of these signs or any concerns regarding this you consult with your doctor for a proper diagnosis and for proper treatment should you have anything other than just a normal vaginal discharge.

Good luck :)

sure

All women discharge to some amount. I'm not sure exactly how much "a lot" is, but if you're really worried about it, I would ask your doctor. Personally, I don't think it's abnormal, or something to really worry about.

Yes, that's why they sell those small panty liners, those are not like pads for period time.

from a hospital or what?

A woman discharges in cycles...if you keep a diary for a couple months, and write down what types of discharge you have from day to day, you may be able to not only know what's normal, but get to know your menstrual cycle even better. Some discharge will be clear, some spongy...but if it smells without blood, than it's time to see a doc. It's also fun to figure out when you ovulate. I took my temp every morn when I just woke up. I was always 97.6. The day I ovulated it would always go up to 98.4 for one day. Like clock work. Check out the net, there is so much info on how women's bodies work...

Yes. For some people. Just wear a panty liner. I'd go to a doctor just to check for HPV and other infections but that's just to be safe.

yes this is totally normal..and it jux means ur gonna get ur period...

absolutely normal.....
donot worry...
