A member asked:

I had a sexual encounter where there was alot of white discharge on my partner which is rare. its close to ovulation, could it be that?

Dr. Harvey Roth answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Probably normal: White vaginal discharge during or after intercourse (especially if there are no other symptoms - odor, pain, itching), is likely due to the increased hormone production during the intercourse. Don't worry if it clears up within 24 hours.
