Vaginal Discharge questions
What vaginal discharge is normal?
Clear or white discharge that changes through your cycle is normal. It often becomes clearer and stretchier around ovulation and may increase in early pregnancy.
When is discharge a sign of infection?
See a doctor if discharge changes color (yellow, green or grey), smells fishy or unpleasant, becomes thick like cottage cheese, or comes with itching, burning, pain or bleeding.
How do you find the cause?
The doctor examines you and tests a swab. A 12-type PCR panel can check for STDs and vaginitis-causing organisms such as Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma and trichomonas.
Can discharge be caused by an STD?
Yes. Chlamydia, gonorrhea and trichomonas can change discharge, and some STDs cause no symptoms at all. PCR testing can detect them.
How quickly will I get treatment?
Many causes can be treated after the examination. PCR results take a little longer, and the doctor adjusts treatment once results are back.
