Brief Answer:
Likely to be vaginal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello

I understand your thinking about possibility of pregnancy.

Milky white vaginal discharge is not a sign of pregnancy and it does not indicate pregnancy chances in anyway.

First I suggest you get home pregnancy test done if you have missed your periods.

This excess milky white discharge is suggestive of vaginal infection which needs to be treated.

Please get examined by a gynecologist and get high vaginal swab sent for culture and sensitivity test to identify type of organism and effective antibiotics against it.

Please let me know when was your last period date . Also get home pregnancy test and let me know result so that I can advice accordingly.
