A member asked:

What could cause a cottage cheese discharge?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yeast: Yeast can causes this type of discharge. Often accompanied by itching and redness, even swelling. Pain can be associated as well yeast vaginitis. Not all thick discharge means yeast, however. Just thick discharge alone can be normal.
