A member asked:

Thick creamy stretchy discharge before period, should i be concerned?

Normal: As long as it is not discolored and doesn't have a foul odor and you are not having itching or pain you should not be worried. Hoe this helps.

No: As your hormones change during the month, so does the cervical mucus. If it doesn't itch or have an odor, its probably normal. Best wishes!
