After me and my boyfriend had sex today, we noticed that my discharge had dried all over his thing and was starting to flake off.  It was normal discharge but there was a lot of it.  Any idea what it could be?  This has only happened to me once before and it was when I thought I was pregnant. (but actually turned out not to be)\n\nI'm not trying to be gross or anything.  And NO I do not have an STD or any type of infection.  Serious answers only.  No stupid/rude responses, please.

You're probably ovulating.  When you are ovulating, your body is saying "Hey I'm ripe and fertile!!  I'm ready to make babies!!"  LOL  But seriously that is what happens.  The extra discharge/moisture produced is to make copulating more easy so you can get pregnant easier.  As long as the discharge isn't a strange color or has a smell then you're fine.  I'm 99% sure it is just because you were ovulating.  Expect your period in a week or so.

it's probably just discharge caused by your hormones changing, and this is normal.  If it continues or you are worried get in to see a doctor.

Maybe. Go to the store and get Cinnamon Extract. It helps control the amount of yeast in your system. Also try to stay away from alcohol. But the only way to really know is to go to a Dr and have him/her check you out. What consistency is the discharge? Is it more liquidy or creamy?\n\n****************\n\nIf it is bacterial vaginosis, like the first responder do NOT use cinnamon extract. You can try, if you prefer not to go on meds, using antibacterial soap to clean yourself, NOT as a douce but just to wash the outside. That may help put things back into balance.

Is there any discharge present?  If not, I would just go buy RePHresh in the vaginal lubricant isle. It restores the natural balance to your "area".  Make sure you only wear 100% cotton underwear.\n\nIf there is discharge present, you may have a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis.

Hi ... well I wont say a thing for the fact that you are looking so closely .. thats your own business, but if you suspect possible cheating .. I cant tell yo many people do the underwear sniff test ... as bad as that sounds.\n\nWomens Vaginas discharge during the day .. I know its not pretty .. some days its not much some days it more.. also is a hormonal thing .. and if your in the process of ovultaing ... a 2 - 3 day period the consitency is different .. sometimes clear, sometimes yellowish ..\nIt could be from a yeast infection .. also .. \nwho knows...\nI believe in honesty .. I would ask ...\nIt would be hard to tell if it was from sex .. as sweat always seems to have that distinct sex smell anyway ..\n\nUnless you suspect funky business I would say its quite normal and most women find it embarssing and hide it from the partners ... but in ur case ur doing the laundry \nhope that helps...

Could just be vaginal discharge (whitish and watery), could be urine, could be sweat. Look at and smell the fluid. If you are unsure, ask your family doctor to help you identify the problem. Good luck!

Depends on your age.  As many people have said it could be a yeast infection. There are many causes for yeast infections. The discharge however would be the consistency of say,'cottage cheesy'! Yuck,huh? Well just trying to describe it better for you.\n\nAnother possibility is ovulation. This usually occurs about two weeks after you last period. Sometimes it has the consistency of 'egg whites' OK,another Yuck! \n\nIf it is accompanied by any burning,itching or pain,you should go in to see a gynecologist. You may have a bladder or kidney infection also.\n\nToo many things it could be with just that description. My best suggestion to you would to see a doctor anyway,just to rule out any concerns you may have.

I agree with Mohamed!\n\nI would like to add that you can use a vaginal douche. Try to use water only.  It empties out the excess discharge.  Try not to use it too often.  You don't want to eliminate the "good" bacteria.  That could lead to infection.\n\nIf you take a bath, lie down as much as possible and with your finger, try to clean your insides a bit.  That usually fixes the problem.

Talk to your doctor.  The discharge might be related to the medication upsetting the natural balance of the vagina.  If the discharge is a creamy consistency and accompanied by itching, then it's a yeast infection that can be easily treated with products you can get at a pharmacy.

first of all if this happened in May, Why did you wait 6 month to ask about it. Second black discharge is definitely not normal, some white discharge is. You need to go see a obgyn A.S.A.P. or if you are under 18 you need to tell your mother. it could be something serious

Some discharge is normal.  If you feel that yours is extreme, then talk to your doctor - that's what they're there for.  In the meantime, be sure to use a pantiliner.  Keep a few extras with you in case you want to freshen up.  If you're worried about odor, be sure to clean the area well and try sprinkling some baby powder on the pantiliner.

Vaginal dryness is not a rarity. It can happen to any woman. Try using the KY warming liquid (purchased at Wal-Mart) it helps trust me..........

Hi Janie, at first I too thought it was a yeast infection, since they sometimes comes before,with and after your period, but to be on the safe side of things, you should get a medical check up first.If you are sexually active, it is best that you not have sex right now.It's your health and you should do what is best for yourself, the last thing you need is to have any disease/illness.Don't take it for granted, get checked out!

Sounds to me like dry skin but I am not a doctor. I would get it checked out to be on the safe side but first just try to use a mild soap and see if that might be causing it to be flaky and if not then like I said go to the doc.

Well, I have had a problem similar to that...I went to the doctor and everything was perfectly fine.  She told me that some women just have more discharge than others, and it is completely normal.  Also, I have noticed that when I am ovulating I tend to have discharge, and sometimes it is discolored.  It's normal, and not pleasant, but you learn to live with it.  Your body is just trying to clean itself out.  Just relax, and try the bath.

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

Sounds like what you are descibing is spotting.  Definitely call your doctor though.  It could be as simple as rough sex that caused the bleeding, or it could be a sign of an STD, or an infection down there.
