Constant vaginal discharge
Posted: 05-30-08 14:24pm

Hi

I'm 26 and have a white vaginal discharge. It doesn't itch and the odour is not offensive. Sometimes it's enough to soil my underwear...sometimes not. Right now it's not soiling them but it's constantly there. This has been happenning for over 8 years now. My ob/gyn treated me for candida regularly. I've had every medication under the sun. I've changed docs and they've treated me with canesten, diflucan, gyno-travogen, sporasec etc etc.
I've had a swab taken and sent to the lab. It came back negative for everything.....trich, candida, gonnorhea, bv, everything but it just doesn't seem to disappear.
I've changed my diet... cut out sugars, flour and nothing seems to work.
I've had an ectopic pregnancy in 2003 and lost one of my tubes. My bf wants to try again for a baby but i'm afraid my other tube may be blocked. I don't want to lose that too cus i really want to have children of my own.
I know this post is long but I'm really scared, frustrated and confused.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!! Crying
or Very sad scared

The most important thing is that (according to the medical tests) your vaginal discharge is not due to infection. Now you can continue trying to conceive. If you are trying for more than one year without success you should ask for medical attention about the sterility problem not about the vaginal discharge.

Vaginal discharge for women is normal. If it is not discolored, have a foul odor, or cause itching, pain or discomfort it is just your normal mucosa. (You have been tested and know that there is no infection.) It will change in consistency and amount through out the month with the change in hormonal levels. There is nothing you can do to prevent it. Some women have more discharge than others. Look at the positive side - you have lots of natural lubricant.

As for having a baby with only one tube - My mother had an ovarian cyst rupture and lost her ovary at a young age. She got married and had 7 successful pregnancies. You will only ovulate from the one side, that is all. Many women can and do have children with only one functioning fallopian tube. All the best.

Thanks you all so much. I guess it's a bit more comforting knowing that there's still hope.
