Normal or bacterial: could be normal. theoretically a woman can have all sorts of vaginal discharge throughout her cycle. You may have just become more aware of it. or could be bacterial vaginosis - not an STD. usually white discharge. can smell fishy after sex. No big deal, but if it bothers you, see MD to get Rx.
