Infection possible: Any change in the color, smell, taste or amount of a vaginal discharge can be hormonal, due to infection, and even diet or medicine related. Get checked out and find out what's going on with appropriate examination and lab work. Stop any new supplements or new brands of vitamins or over the counter meds you are taking. Avoid fragrances in body washes and detergents in the area and on clothes.
