Vaginal discharge after BM - Bowel Disorders Message Board

Frequently I have a white, thick, vaginal discharge during a bowel movement. I've had it for years. It resembles candida albicans (yeast) but it isn't. It doesn't have an odor to it. I also do not strain during BMs either. Anyone experience a symptom like this? Thanks.

Same problem for about 2 years, except I really didn't think about it until I started getting some pelvic/groin pain. I had an ultra/intra vaginal ultrasound done and they didn't find anything. Also had an MRI - still nothing. I've been tested for STDs and still nothing. They said there was a possibility it was endometriosis. Have your docs given you any clue?

I know that,as a female, if you are during your fertile time of the month, (6 hours to 3 days per month)you will have an ecessive vaginal lubrication. during the pushing of a bowel movement, you will push some of this out. it looks like egg white tho, and very wet/stretchy. not like cottage cheese. some people mistake this as coming from the rectum when they wipe from front to back.

ive got the same problem, sometimes its not very noticable but at the moment its really bad... i wondering if its due to being generally ill that it has increased? ive got various symptoms ranging from bowel troubles to dizziness and feel generally under the weather.
