does going off the pill cause excessive discharge?!
Question: Does going off the pill cause excessive discharge?
I stopped taking birth control a few weeks ago and recently i've had such excessive, greenish yellow discharge. it is so much that i woke up in the middle of the night last night because i felt like i was getting my period but it turns out that it was only more discharge. is this normal? and im getting a lot more acne than usual. that could also be because i stopped taking an acne pill but i don't know.
Answers:
Green / Yellow is actually a sign of infection. I'd definitely have it checked out properly by a gynae! Sounds like you may need some antibiotics.
As for the acne, that's normal. Withdrawal from hormones would do that. It can take around 3 months for your body to regulate properly on it's own again.
