What Causes Excessive Vaginal Discharge During Intercourse?
Hello Doctor! My boyfriend and I had protected sex yesterday and there was a thicker than usual, increased amount of discharge. We noticed it on both inside and outside my vagina. We checked to see if the condom was broken , but it had no holes present and did not leak when we tried putting water in it. I am expecting my period in a few days, and think that the white discharge seen was actually the white discharge that comes with having your period. I did not drink a pill or anything after because it didnt seem like anything out of the ordinary. But iust to be sure, what do you think?

Hello,
I think this discharge is caused by a fungal infection and is more obvious before the period.
I think you should do a vaginal smear to check for infection. If it comes out to be candida you should get treated with Clotrimazole. Avoid intercourse while in treatment.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
