A member asked:

Does a creamy white milky discharge a day before expected periods mean that i am pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO: It is actually normal for this to occur. The white discharge is due to the change in the vaginal fluid due to not being pregnant. The ph changes and becomes more hostile to sperm and this can be noticed as a slight white discharge.
