Doctor can examine: Vaginal discharge is anything coming from the vagina that is more than the scant amount of normal mucous that healthy women have. A discharge that has odor may be an infection with germs such as bacteria, trichomonas, gonorrhea or chlamydia (discharge worsens as infection gets worse). A woman in her 40's can see the same doctor who does her Pap cancer screening, for an exam and maybe medication.
