Is this common or is it a health issue.  There is no redness so I am ruling out a yeast infection.  Is there anything that can be done about this?  Hygene is not an issue.

Well i'm not sure if this will help \n \nVaginal itching and a change in vaginal discharge\n\n\nMost women have some vaginal discharge. A normal vaginal discharge:\n\nDoes not smell bad.\nIs not gray, green, or yellow.\nDoes not occur with vaginal or genital redness, burning, or itching.\nDoes not occur with pelvic pain or burning when you urinate.\nYou may notice a normal increase in your vaginal discharge during the middle of your menstrual cycle.\n\nThe vagina contains a large number of different types of organisms, such as yeast cells and bacteria, that exist in a balance with each other. Vaginitis is the result of a change in the normal balance of vaginal organisms. When you have vaginitis, you may notice:\n\nVaginal itching.\nAn increase in vaginal discharge.\nA change in the color of the discharge.\nA strong vaginal odor, especially after sex.\nOther symptoms include increased redness, swelling, itching, or irritation in the vaginal or genital area. Sometimes burning after urination may be present.\n\nA few women develop chronic, repeated vaginitis. Vaginal irritation with burning and discharge is the main symptom. While many women think they have a yeast infection that won't go away, this may not be the case. If you have increased vaginal discharge or other symptoms of a vaginal infection, it is important to check with your doctor to find the cause of your symptoms.

I would go see a health professional to see if it is an STD , but it doesn't sound like it from the description . It may be a discoloration of the skin and in that case you may be able to get help from the doctor to treat it . Best of luck .

Never heard of that happening as yeast is present on the body all of the time.  You only get the infection when something happens (irritation, taking antibiotics, etc.) make them multiply more.  I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Yes it sounds like yeast. A number of things can cause one. Stress, too much caffeine, staying moist, using a different soap or detergent, not cleaning up after intercourse. I would get them all the time. You can either call your doctor and tell  him you need the difflucan pill or you can try the creams at the store. I personally would call your doctor. Hope this helps!

Sounds like a yeast infection. Get it checked out, and if it is, make sure you tell your bf. Men can carry yeast infections, so if you get rid of it and have unprotected sex with him again, you will just get it again.

Yes it is.  As long as it doesn't smell or has color. If it does, then you have yeast infection and you have to see your doctor.   But if it doesn't then you are fine.  That discharge is a way of your body to clean itself.

I'm going to disagree with the other poster and say see your doctor BEFORE you try to self-treat, just to rule out any other problems.  Here's a link that describes yeast infections:\n\nGood Luck!

Have you been checked out...just because its not itching or dsplaying any other annoying symptoms does not mean you dont have a common vaginal problem..or an STD... you could have anything from a common yeast infection, BV...to something more serious..the best thing to always do especially women if something is not "RIGHT" or different down there you may have a problem and if left untreated the results could threaten your life or the ability to creat life. We go through so many changes and each of us react to them in a different way some women are prone to symptoms while some can have an infection for months and not notice anything at all.....you are better off in the long run seeing a dr. even if it is nothing.

I would be VERY concerned and you should see your doc... this sounds like a STI to me. Hope i'm wrong....good luck.

I actually JUST experienced this very thing.  I am diabettic type 2 and just recently I had been experiencing frequent urination (every 10 minutes).  At first I thought the vaginal dryness and itching I was experiencing was because of the fact that I was wiping so frequently and also because of this new caramel creme shower gel that I was using.  I knew the frequent urination I was experiencing was due to my high sugar levels.  I'd also heard that people who are diabetic are more susceptible to frequent yeast infections or UTIs because of the glucose in their blood stream.  So, at first, I thought that was what I was experiencing-- a yeast infection.  I'd never had one in my life and did not know the exact symptoms or what to do.  There was no discharge or odor, only intense itching and dryness. \n\nAfter maybe two weeks, the dryness and itching seemed to disappear. I felt a lot better.  My fiance and I decided to have intercourse,  and I could not get wet.  I was still experiencing the dryness.  So-- he tried to lubricate me with his saliva.  The next day-- the itching and burning returned ten times as worse and I was totally irritated.  I thought I was going to die.  I tried a monistat 1 and that only slightly relieved the symptoms.  Finally, I went to the emergency room and explained that I thought I had a yeast infection due to high glucose levels. I told them that the symptoms increased after sexual activity, but that I was sure it was not an std because my boyfriend and I were virgins and had never been with anyone else other than each other.  They did tests and could not find a UTI nor could they diagnose the irritation as a "yeast infection" caused by Candida.  They diagnosed it as vaginitis, said I was just extremely irritated and prescribed a three pill antibiotic in case of bacterial infection and also an antifungal vaginal cream (prescriptive monistat per the pharmacist) in case of fungal infection. They also gave me a solution IV while in the hospital to bring my glucose level down, which stopped the severe unrination, which gave me some relief from the irritation.  It was like that entire area (kidneys and vaginal) was just completely irritated.\n\nSO--  right now I am finishing the antifungal cream.  The pharmacist told me that I could use it on the inside of the labia where I was experiencing the dryness and itching, so that it was I did, as opposed to using the applicator to insert the cream into my vaginea. After five days of doing that, though my symptoms seemed to have subsided drastically, I still did not feel 100% normal down there. So, I started to use the applicator to insert the cream.  I am on day four.  After the solution IV to bring my glucose down, the antibiotic, the monistat 1 and now the prescription antifungal, I STILL do not feel 100% like before.  I am still dry and that has NEVER been a problem until recently.\n\nOne thing that I DID mention to the doctor was that my boyfriend has had a ear and throat problem for the longest that he believes is some sort of infection.  I am guessing that there was some sort of bacteria or something in his saliva that increased the irritation, combined with the irritation I was already experiencing   I still don't know if, indeed, it was a yeast infection; now I am guessing that it may had been an infection that was caused by something other than Candida since it intensified after intercourse. Since we are still inexperienced, I thought the irritation I was feeling was because he tore something down there or whatever.  Now, I'm afraid to have sex again.  Sex is also extremely painful for me-- it feels like he is ripping something.  I don't even know if he is inserting it into the correct hole.  I feel really embarrased to admit this, but wer are 31 and had sex for the first time when we were 29.  Since then, we've had it off and on maybe 5 times, so I know the infrequency is not helping the situation.  I am trying not to reso

You may have a infection. I has BV before and it's not sexually transmitted but it cause discharge. Does it smell bad?

I'm a pharmacist, so I'll try to answer your question to the best of my knowledge.\nWhat are your other symptoms?  Usually there is discharge with a yeast infection.  It would be cottage-cheese-like (gross, I know) with NO odor.  Usually, an odorous discharge is associated with a bacterial infection that is sexually transmitted.  You could have redness and soreness with swelling, also.  Pain can be a symptom of a yeast infection, especially if you've been scratching a lot.\nCramping can be a common symptom of some of the creams that are used to treat yeast infections.  Have you been using these?  \nHave you tried anything yet?  There are lots of creams and vaginal suppositories you can get from a drug store that are pretty effective if it is indeed a yeast infection.  You could try one of these products and use an external cream for the itching.  I would say that if these don't start working within a few days and/or the abdominal pain continues for the same amount of time, you should see a doctor.\nHope that helps!

IF it's yeast, which even doctors misdiagnose sometimes, it should respond to treatment UNLESS it is a resistant species.  Most yeast infections are caused by Candida Albicans, but I personally have Candida glabrata.  Other species may or may not respond to treatment.  \n\nAlso, since the yeast went away, it's logical to assume that it was the albicans strain.  As such, it's return means that either a) you didn't take enough, or quit the treatment too soon b) you have a precipitating factor causing yeast overgrowth.  In which case, a is easily remedied and b) needs evaluation for HIV, diabetes, or allergens.  \n\nHIV compromises the immune system creating chronic yeast in some women, and diabetes and lack of control of insulin in addition to compromising the immune system, also can cause yeast to grow out of control.  For me, allergens can cause excess vaginal discharge which provides a hospitable environment facilitating their growth.  I've even changed everything to unscented (soap, detergent) and still have problems.  Allergens can cause a problem in that steroids used to treat them often cause yeast overgrowth too, so I was up the creek without a pattle.\n\nI use boric acid suppositories, they are safe, inexpensive (about $30 for a 3-month supply), and they WORK.  I'm possibly having issues with them right now inflaming my urethra due to over-use, so I would recommend you use them every 3-4 days, not every other day like me.  Boric acid alters the ph literally making it impossible for yeast to live.  It takes longer than 3 days for yeast to return again (usually four to five days).  You can get a prescription for this, generally gynecologists know about this trick, or you can go to the drug store and get boric acid poweder and put 600 mg in a gelatin capsule.\n\nDiet is an iffy thing, with huge debate.  If it worked, then I'd say go with it.  But generally, in otherwise healthy women without diabetes, diet shouldn't be an issue.

you need to see a doctor.... a number of things could be wrong.  something as simple as a yeast infection or something more serious.

It could do that.  But then, it could be something else.  If you're using a vaginal cream, maybe it's irritating you.  It might help to eliminate sugar and starches from your diet (all) for a while if you really have a yeast infection.  Would clear it up faster.
