Why must i monitor vaginal discharge?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Vaginal discharge usually means some type of vaginal or cervical or uterine infection. Some women can have increased vaginal discharge because of increased mucus production form the cervix. You should see your gyn for an exam and he or she can do a culture and pap if necessary to see if you have an infection that needs to be treated.
