A member asked:

Today my period was supposed to start but there's only slight green sticky stuff with a little blood on the tampon, what does this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Trichomonas? : You should consider getting a culture and micro analysis of the discharge, anything greenish could be a Trichomonas or bacterial infection, see your OB/Gyn, usually clears with Flagyl
