About the symptom

Normal vaginal discharge is clear or milky and thin. Abnormal discharge may be yellow or green, chunky in consistency, or foul smelling.

When to see a doctor

Seek professional care if you experience any of the following symptoms

  • Fever

  • Lower abdominal pain

  • Abdominal pain

  • Intermenstrual bleeding

  • Urinary frequency

  • Increase in vaginal discharge

Possible causes

  • Atrophic vaginitis

    A condition in which the vaginal surface becomes dry and thin, commonly seen after menopause due to decreased female hormone levels. Symptoms include itching and painful intercourse.

  • Candida vulvovaginitis

    This is a fungal infection by Candida that affects the vaginal area. Candida normally exists on skin and vaginal linings without issues. An infection occurs when the skin or vaginal lining changes in character, promoting Candida overgrowth. People with weakened immune systems or on birth control pills may be at increased risk.

  • Descent of uterus / uterine prolapse

    The uterus (womb) protrudes outside the body when the muscles and tissues supporting it become weakened, such as after repeated childbirths or aging, causing the womb to drop out.

  • Pollakiuria
  • Chlamydia infection
  • Vaginitis
  • Gonorrhea
  • Cervical cancer
  • Genital herpes

Related serious diseases

  • Pelvic inflammatory disease

    A disease where organs in the pelvis, such as the uterus, become infected. This causes abdominal pain, fever, and other symptoms. Since the infection can spread quickly, prompt antibiotic treatment is crucial.
