Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

3 steps: 1. If you think you might be pregnant check then check a home pregnancy test. They are cheap, reliable and available at any pharmacy. 2. Schedule a visit to have the discharge tested for infection 3. Use birth control and condoms to prevent these scares in the future.
