Hello,
Increase in vaginal discharge without ant other associated symptoms could be due to bacterial vaginosis, which occurs due to change in normal vaginal flora. Vaginal swab and microscopy can confirm the diagnosis. Once the diagnosis is confirmed management is with antibiotic Metronidazole.
Hope this answers your question
Please let me know if you have any more questions
