why is my discharge stringy ?!


Question: Why is my discharge stringy ?
For a while now every time i use the bathroom there's discharge comes out of my vagina. It's kind of white and kind of clear and its stringy. And takes a while for it to come off. It also Is soaking my underwear. Is there anything i can do that will lessen my discharge?

Answers:

Mine gets like that when I am ovulating most of the time. I get a lot of discahrge all of the time though and even though I don't know a way that you can lessen it, it helps to wear a pantie liner. This way it doesn't get in your underwear and you can change it in public if you start to feel gross unlike your underwear. Don't wear a tampon for it though no matter how light because it will mess up your Ph balances and not have enough to saturate it and you are at rise of TSS. I recommend U by Kotex pantie liners because they are comfortable, keep you dry, and stick great. :) Good luck.



Vaginal discharge is normal and varies during your menstrual cycle. Before ovulation (the release of the egg), there is a lot of mucous produced, up to 30 times more than after ovulation. It is also more watery and elastic during that phase of your cycle. You may want to wear panty liners during that time.

The things to be worried about include if the discharge has a yellow or green color, is clumpy like cottage cheese, or has a bad odor. If worried, see a doctor.




Different Types of Discharge
White: Thick, white discharge is common at the beginning and end of your cycle. Normal white discharge is not accompanied by itching. If itching is present, thick white discharge can indicate a yeast infection.

Clear and stretchy: This is "fertile" mucous and means you are ovulating.

Clear and watery: This occurs at different times of your cycle and can be particularly heavy after exercising.

Yellow or Green: May indicate an infection, especially if thick or clumpy like cottage cheese or has a foul odor.

Brown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown.

Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test.
