my discharge is normal most of the time,
but during sex it has a sour taste. i
noticed when i gave my my boyfriend oral
sex after we had had intercourse. i know
the taste comes from my discharge during
sex and just wondered if this is normal
and how i cud change it? he says it doesnt
bother him but i think he might just be
being nice
any advice would be welcomed thank u!

Possibly bacterial vaginosis - very simple
to cure! ASk your doc for a prescription.

vaginal discharge does taste sour a lot of
the time because it is slightly acidic.
the ph level of the vagina changes during
your cycle, but it is about ph4 (ph7 being
neutral) so it is naturally 'sour' to the
taste.
the only reason you should be worried is
if it is lumpy in consistency, or if you
have itching, or is if the smell or taste
is foul. if it was i'm sure it'd be pretty
noticeable!

not as far as i am aware. the reason it is
acidic is so that it doesn't make an
environment that bacteria can live in. the
acidity helps to stop you getting
infections. unless you are seeing some big
unusual changes in your discharge, you
have nothing to worry about. you are
normal.
