What is the normal vaginal discharge?!


Question:

What is the normal vaginal discharge?

I've read people saying that the normal vaginal discharge should be colorless or at times whitish. Is this true? I have yellow colored discharge but I don't feel any burning or itching sensation. I don't really know how to determine how foul foul odor is because mine smells more acidic.
Is this a matter of grave urgency? should i go to the doctor immediately?


Answers:

Normal vaginal discharge is white, creamy and should be generally odourless, or it should smell like soap. Some discharge can be clear & stringy, too - this is normal.
Abnormal vaginal discharge is discharge that smells, is green, yellow or black in colour and smells like fish.

You shouldn't go to the doctor immediately. Abnormal vaginal discharge can't kill you unless you have other symptoms. Make an appointment tomorrow if you're worried.
