What color should discharge be? Mine is yellow. Is that
normal?
Ah, the age old question about discharge. Let’s get into
all—OK, OK, some—of the colors of the
rainbow.
Normal discharge is clear, white or off-white in color. The
texture can vary from thin and sticky and elastic to thick or gooey.
If this isn’t what your discharge looks or feels like, take
note! The change could be an important sign of an imbalance in your bod. Signs
you should go to a doc? Discharge that’s grayish or greenish in color,
discharge that’s foamy or clumpy like cottage cheese, discharge that smells
bad, burning, swelling or redness. Yellow discharge could be a sign of infection,
so get yourself to a doc to be checked out.
Number-one rule of discharge diagnosis? If you’re in doubt,
get checked out! A quick phone call to your doctor could help you figure out if
there is a problem, so don’t delay.
