Answers:
It is called leukorrhea and it is totally normal and healthy. It is just your body cleaning up. As long as there is no odor or pain, count yourself lucky that your body is functioning so well.
I get that discharge a week b4 my period sometimes.only other time I've had it was when I was pregnant.
An odorous vaginal discharge can sometimes be a symptom of bacterial vaginitis. It should be checked out. I know you may feel uncomfortable talking about this with your doctor, but that's what the doctor is there for. This is a common problem that your doctor has heard many times before. If you avoid bringing it up, the poor doctor will go out of business! In general, vaginitis doesn't cause sterility. If you get a sexually transmitted disease, that can cause sterility. The doctor checks for that by doing a cervical culture or smear at the time of a vaginal exam. As far as home remedies, the only thing I know of would be douching. In this process you are rinsing out any vaginal or cervical secretions so that bacteria have less material on which to produce odorous causing chemicals. There actually is evidence that regular douching seems to increase the incidence of vaginal infections. However, if you already have a problem, douching is often effective in reducing the symptoms. Betadine douche is one still recommended by many physicians. If the symptoms don't clear up after douching 3/week for one or two weeks, you really should see your doctor.
You could have ovarian non cancerous cysts they pop frequently and come back. Go see a Dr. right away. Well no STDs maybe your fateful partner is not so fateful always a possibility? Gonorrhea in women sometimes does not burn but it is different in man. Does he have a frown on his face when he gets out of the bathroom? All kidding aside go to Dr. while you still have discharge it will be OK.
