A member asked:

I have just had a hysterectomy. i now have a mucus discharge from the vagina. is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: The walls of the vagina can still produce discharge. Usually discharge that is clear or white in the absence of itching or odors is completely normal and nothing to worry about.
