Is discharge an early pregnancy sign?

Through thick & thin: The thinning of the cervical mucous occurs prior to ovulation in mid cycle. Overt pregnancy causes a thickening of the cervical mucous forming a "plug" to prevent the access of bacteria to the cervical opening and the pregnancy. Regardless of texture the cervical mucous "stays with you always".

None: There is no consistent discharge that is generally associated with pregnancy. Due to early hormonal changes you may experience an increase in a clear mucousy discharge but this is variable and can be due to other thinghs.

A 28-year-old female asked:
What does early pregnancy discharge typically look like? Would it be thick, white, and stringy?

No discharge: Most women in pregnancy do not experience vaginal discharge early on. If you are seeing abnormal discharge then schedule a visit to an Obgyn for testing. There are a variety of infections that can cause abnormal discharge. Testing will determine the cause and treatment
