Brief Answer:
Likely due to increased hormone called progesterone.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM,

I have read your query and understand your concerns about white discharge.

This sticky white substance or discharge after taking I-pill is likely due to increased hormone called progesterone. This progesterone hormone increases white discharge by increasing mucous secretion in vagina following ingestion of i-Pill.

Also,let me provide some more information,

Is there pain during this white discharge?
Any itching or foul smell?

These answers will help me to rule out any bacterial or fungal infection.

However, it seems very unlikely due to pregnancy. Hence no need to worry about it.

Hope this helps and get back to me with more information.

Regards,

Dr.Sandip Kabra

yes,unlikely due to pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the quick follow-up.

Since there is no itching or foul smell,it is likely because of I-pill ingestion as we discussed earlier. Most probably it will subside within few days or a week.
