Is this normal or does it sound like some sort of infection!.
Sorry i know this is a bit gross :P

Answers:
It is the color of discharge that you need to watch out for!. Many women experience more discharge either right before or after their period which is very normal!. For most women it is clear or off white and slippery!. And around the time of ovulation (mid cycle), women report having thick or clumpy brown discharge!. This is also very normal!. Now, if the discharge is green or yellow, has a smell to it, or is accompanied by itching then it is probably an infection!. If this sounds like what you are experiencing then I would set up an appointment with the doc, because it's not a good idea for these things to go untreated!. But in general women will experience variance in the color and texture of their discharge at different times in their cycle!. Clear, white, or off white, with a tiny bit of smell is normal (let's face it!.!.the stuff doesn't smell like roses and is coming out of a body cavity, so a little smell is normal!.) But if it is noticeable or stinky, is causing itching or burning and is a different color, have it checked out!. Best wishes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its normal!.!. Few spots of red could be spotting due to ovulation!.!. However, you didn't mention if you are sexually active or not!.!. If you are, then it could probably mean something else!.!. Hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
