What Causes White Vaginal Discharge Before Having Periods?
hello doctor.. i m a 27 yr old unmarried woman.almost 12-15 days before my periods i experience white dicharge which is quite thick though its not with odour..earlier i used to experience such discharge irregularly and it was smelly..but now its only 12-15 days before my periods..i m a bit worried...what is going on inside me? thank you in advance..
hi, thanks for writing in to hcm. 12-15 days before menstruation coincides with ovulation presuming your cycle is of 28- 30 days. Hence having whitih discharge during ovulation is normal hence donot worry. If it is very smelly then please consult a gynaecologist for clinical examination. If the white discharge is cottage cheese type or very foul smelling then you may need antifungal treatment for 7 days.
Regards, Dr.Riyanka
