A member asked:

I had a hysterectomy about 13 years ago but have a nagging pasty discharge its white or yellow depending on what color my underwear are that day. when it dries in my underwear it is crusty and flaky. it doesn't have must of an oder, nothing foul?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal vaginal secretions or mucus are colorless &odorless which sounds like your discharge as when dry it appears like egg whites. Associated vaginal itching would suggest a yeast infection. If you note itching, ask your pharmacist for a nonprescription antiyeast vaginal cream to try. See a gynecologist as needed.
