Hi Madhu,

You should not be concerned about the discharge unless it is too heavy or it is causing difficulties in daily routine.

However, it is advisable to get a routine per speculum examination done by a Gynecologist to rule out infections.

Continue to take folic acid supplements.

I wish you good luck.

Regards,
