a lot of really white smelly discharge, doesn't itch or burn Posted: 09-18-07 07:54am
She never goes to the doctor when
somethings wrong with her
I know most of the time when someone says
"friends" its really them but its not, i
go to the doctor when the smallest things
wrong, i just worry alot.
okay so heres her problem:
1) alot of really white discharge
2) it smells .. (kind of fruity but not
she said)
3) it doesn't itch or burn or sting
any ideas?
could it be from soap she washes with?

If it's clean white and doesn't smell
terrible (and fruit is not my idea of
terrible) then it doesn't sound like
something to worry about. The only thing I
could think of would be a yeast infection,
but only a gynecologist can tell her that.

Yeah it could be a yeast infection, or a
host of other infections.
You could try the scare tactic- untreated
infections in the reproductive system can
lead to pid which can lead to infertility.
Discharge, white or off-white is normal.
And it usually has a smell to it. But if
it smells really bad or you can smell it
through her clothes (and really, not just
her being paranoid) than she does need to
go to a doc.
