Whats this discharge? - Women's Health Message Board

For the past few days on and off I have noticed a white/creamy type discharge on my underwear. It doesnt have a smell. I am not sure why I am having this...I wash twice a day so its not as if I am unclean.
For the past few weeks I have been under alot of stress and I have also been unwell battling a flu during this time. I dont know if that would have anything to do with it.

Whats goin on?

are you sexually active? more discharge than normal, similar to what you described, can be an early symptom of pregnancy. if it doesnt smell or itch i wouldnt say its anything to worry about as it doesnt sound like an infection

It sounds like normal discharge and nothing to worry about. Particularly if you are not on the pill, you will have discharge throughout your cycle every month (the pill tends to dry up cervical mucus so I had little of it while on the pill). Your cycle will start off right after your period dry, then sticky, then you will get creamy discharge that gradually becomes more and more stretchy like uncooked eggwhite around the time you ovulate. After ovulation, cervical mucus tends to be less again then your period starts about 2 weeks from ovulation and the cycle repeats.

I have not have actual intercourse. I have done some sexual activity, but no intercourse or penetration.

Thanks for your help guys. It probably is what the previous poster said.
