Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM .

If the discharge is not associated with foul smell then don't worry. It is due to hormonal support you take like estradiol and progesterone after embryo transfer.

These will increase local blood supply which helps in implantation and maintaince of pregnancy and also increase discharge.

If the discharge is associated with foul smell and itching then it could be due to infection from embroy transfer. So consult your doctor. You can take a course of antibiotic for 5 days under guidance of your doctor.

Hope I have been helpful .

Regards
Dr.Deepika Patil
