A member asked:

Is it normal to have very mild cramps and white discharge 6 days before period is due?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mid cycle discharge.: Mild cramping with a clear to white, thick discharge is often seen at the time of ovulation. It is a bit unusual that this appears 6 days before a period, because ovulation usually occurs 14 days before a period. I would want to know if you have had any new sexual contacts to rule out any chance of an infection.
