Thick Sticky White Vaginal Discharge Posted: 06-12-07 11:32am
i am 18 years of age and within the past
year my discharge has changed in texture
as well as smell... i always feel like i
dont have alot of lubrication down below
now and if there is any discharge, it's
always thick and sticky and white. i dont
think it is a yeast infection because it's
not itchy or anything is this something to
be concerned about, or is this normal for
me to be experiencing?

Thick, sticky, white discharge is usually
normal. Discharge might be thick or
watery, and it might be clear or white.
It can also be stringy like egg whites.
All of that is normal. You also might
notice that your discharge changes in
color or texture throughout the month.
Signs that there might be a problem are
green discharge, frothy discharge, very
stinky discharge, and discharge that looks
like cottage cheese.
However, if you notice any major changes
in your discharge, it's a good idea to
have an ob-gyn take a look just in case.
