yellow vaginal discharge?
okay this is a bit nasty but I have been suffering some unusual yellow vaginal discharge since December, it isn’t offensive in smell but it isn’t normal for me.
I’ve had 3 STI tests, including tests for thrush and BV and my partner has been tested as well, everything came back negatove but the gave me 2 weeks doxy and 1 week metronidazole as a precaution. This was all in January and my symptoms haven’t cleared up despite taking the medication correctly.
What the hell else could it be?! any natural remedies which will help this as obviously it isn’t very nice.
Thanks.

Yellow vaginal discharge?
For the past 2 day i’ve had a yellow vaginal discharge, its been a week or so after my last period, and I am taking birth control. other sites i’ve checked all involve something about pregnancy but that is not the option because I haven’t missed a pill in the past 3 months that i’ve been taking it. It has no odor and isn’t clumpy and I have no redness or itching, just yellow mucus. What could it be?

go see the doc,you may have a mild infection,and take a pregnancy test just to be on the safe side,because if you are pregnant you need to find out early so you can stop all bad habbits you might have and start eating healthy

it is perfectly normal. i get it too. to me, it started off clear, than whitish, then yellowy, and it’s perfectly normal and dose not mean you are pregnant because i am 11 and obviously did not have sex yet.

Your normal white/clear discharge will turn yellow or dry yellow when exposed to air. However, if it is coming out yellow it could be a bacterial infection. The vagina is self-cleaning so it could be your body is trying to get rid of something.
Different types of infections:
Signs of yeast infections:
White, cottage cheese-like discharge
Swelling and pain around the vulva
Intense itchingSigns of bacterial vaginosis:
A white, gray or yellowish vaginal discharge
A fishy odor that is strongest after sex or after washing with soap
Itching or burning
Slight redness and swelling of the vagina or vulvaSigns of trichomoniasis
A watery, yellowish or greenish bubbly discharge
An unpleasant odor
Pain and itching when urinating
Most apparent after your period

It could be a yeast infection or undiagnosed vaginal infection like a bacterial infection (which is really common) or an STD. Your best bet is to schedule a pap smear and tell your OBGYN how it hurts after sex and all the symptoms that are occurring. Actually, you should probably do that as soon as possible so that whatever it is doesn't get any worse, because it doesn't sound like it's nothing.

Some women are more prone to yeast infections just before or just after their periods due to their normal change in hormones. Try eating yogurt (the probiotics in it can help) before your period to see if that will prevent it.

Does it smell "different" than your regular discharge? Does it smell when you have intercourse? If so, when you go to have a pap, ask that they test you for trichomoniasis.

It is occasionally normal before and after a period however is not normal regularily.
"The things to be worried about include if the discharge has a yellow or green color, is clumpy like cottage cheese, or has a bad odor. If worried, see a doctor." [Source below.]
"Changes that may signal a problem include an increase in the amount of discharge, a change in the color or smell of the discharge, and irritation, itchiness or burning in or around your vagina. This is called vaginitis. A discharge that's stained with blood when you're not having your period could also be a sign of a problem. If you have any of these signs, you should talk to your doctor." [Sourced below.]

It might be normall…. it might not be, it could be an infection with not much symptoms. I went to get a pap because i was having discharge and they look at it under the microscope and tell you if you have an infection, I went and found out i had bacterial vaginosis.

If it's drying yellow you are probably fine. If it's coming out yellow you probably have an infection.
Different Types of Discharge:
White: Thick, white discharge is common at the beginning and end of your cycle. Normal white discharge is not accompanied by itching. If itching is present, thick white discharge can indicate a yeast infection.
Clear and stretchy: This is "fertile" mucous and means you are ovulating.
Clear and watery: This occurs at different times of your cycle and can be particularly heavy after exercising.
Yellow or Green: May indicate an infection, especially if thick or clumpy like cottage cheese or has a foul odor.
Brown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown.
Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test.

Yellow vaginal discharge?
I have been experiencing slightly yellow vaginal discharge. It is not always there but when it is it is typically stringy and thin. Once it was thicker and was mixed with white discharge. I have also been having lower adbdominal pain that is mostly on the right side but radiates across the entire abdomen sometimes.
Yesterday I went to the doctor. Had a urine test and pelvic exam. No UTI and the doctor said my exam looked normal but that she would sent the culture for testing of gonorrhea and chlamydia, even though I was tested 2 months ago and it was negative. The doctor thinks I have an ovarian cyst based on my abdominal pain and thinks the discharge is normal. When I got tested 2 months ago I was also having yellow discharge at the time too.
I am having no other symptoms. No foul smell, no itching, burning, pain in vaginal region, bleeding during intercourse.
My question is, does anyone else have this problem or know what may be causing the discharge?

YOU HAVETWO PROBLEMS 1.DISCHARGE 2.PAIN LOWER ABDOMEN
1. DISCHARGE-IF YOU WERE TESTED FOR THIS AND NO PROBLEMS WERE DETECTED AND IF THIS DISCHARGE IS MINIMAL,NOT WETTING YOUR CLOTHES AND NOT FORCING YOU TO CHANGE, THEN NOTHING TO WORRY.
2.PAIN LOWER ABDOMEN-THIS COULD BE BECAUSE OF VARIOUS REASONS, AN ULTRASOUND OF PELVIS WILL BE HELPFUL IN DECIDING IF THERE IS OVARIAN CYST OR NOT.
ONCE ULTRASONOGRAPHY REPORT IS AVAILABLE THAN MATTER CAN BE FURTHER CLARIFIED.

Yeast infection or Bladder/Kidney infection all could make yellow discharge. If it continues or any pain develops contact your doctor. Also you may want to know there are various medications out there that may cause vaginial discharge or colored urine.

If it is itchy and smells like cheese, you have bacterial infection. Or, you could have a yeast infection. It will get worse if you don't go the Dr. and get medicine…vaginal cream.
Do you take bubble baths? That can give you a bacterial infection.

don't listen to the pricks, that is completly normal, it doesn't happen to everyone but there is not need to worry. after you get your period it'll be better. you don't need emergency help or anything like that. just stay clean

Sounds normal to me for before you start your period. It's probably just that your body has started producing lubrication because of puberty. And you said you talked to you doctor, so if they didn't call it an infection, you're probably fine.

From I can remember this was like a sign that my period was coming. If i'm not wrong is a sign that the ovaries are maturing and ready to ovulate. The other possible answer is some kind of infection. It is not necessary to be sexually active in order to get an infection. Hope this helps. Have you seen a Gynecologist? Maybe you should do that.

Yellow discharge flaky. This is all normal. Discharge just becomes flaky and crusty when it is exposed to oxygen. As for you getting your period at the same time as your mom. That is not always true. Wasn't true for me.n Or my mom and her mom.

You poor thing! All these people are kinda being rude! Go to the library and look up the book "Taking Charge of your Fertility". Look at the pictures in the middle and see if that looks like anything that you are describing. It sounds like you may be having cervical fluid which EVERY WOMAN has around when they are ready to ovulate, 2 weeks before their period.
Discharge is caused by estrogen raising in the body. It does not mean you have an infection. Sometimes women have snotty looking stuff just because your hormones are going crazy. If you are itchy or burning, then it's probably an infection. You need to go to an OBGYN and have them take a glance at ya. They'll be able to tell you for sure. Hang in there!

Sounds like a yeast infecton, is not life threatening but needs to be dealt with. Check the internet for treatment that is used by yourself. (Google yeast infection) You may find books on this at your library. Please treat this as it can cause problems later in life.

i'm not sure if you are really referring to discharge where it really wet your underwear or is it just yellowish stain on your underwear. If it is just yellowish stain, no course of alarm as it is normal during puberty stage. but if it wet your underwear, then u may want to consult a doctor. u don't have to take off your clothes, just underwear if they need to examine there.

It could be an infection , dont use too much soap , in fact i got toldonly to use warm water down there as im very sensative to things like that .
I know this might sould grose but it could jjust be a little wee and female discharge together ( every female gets discharge ) but it shouldnt smell.
Also tight underwear can couse issuses too.
Hope this helps

Yeast is itchy and sometimes painful/irritating and the discharge is like cottage cheese. A yellow discharge is sometimes a sign of vaginitis or a vagina infection. You do not have to be sexually active to get one. Wearing tight pants, hot weather, all of these contribute to them. A doctors visit is in order. Also, if the odor is more like a urine smell, it could be that you just need to wear a panty liner. The ONLY way to diagnose a vaginal infection is to have a GYN exam.
Don't be embarrassed. it is better to be safe, these things don't just go away.
Tell Mom, she will understand, she might even have better answers for you
