Hi,
According to your history, the possibilities are:
-Pelvic infection: which can present as white discharge, with excessive amount, altered color and foul smell. If associated with cervical erosion, spotting can also be seen.
- In premenstrual phase also increased white discharge with premenstrual spotting can be seen.
- Usually 21 to 35 days of menstrual cycles can be considered as normal. And sometimes fluctuations in the length of menstrual cycles can be seen.
If you are having any doubt regrading pregnancy, please go for a urine pregnancy test once. If the test gives a negative result, and if the white discharge persists, better to consult your gynecologist once and get examined. By clinical examination, the exact nature of the problem can be identified and treatment can be taken accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
