Vaginal discharge and pregnancy
Posted: 04-07-08 03:20am

I should be starting my period this week but haven't gotten any of my usual symptoms. However, I do have a white discharge every time I urinate. It has no odor. It has been going on for about a week now. Is this a pregnancy symptom or something else?

If your menstrual cycle is irregular (as you reported) you can never be sure when your period will come. Vaginal discharge can increase during pregnancy but that is not a secure sign of pregnancy because it can also indicate a vaginal infection. You can find out if you are pregnant or not by doing a pregnancy test.
