A member asked:

What might be the cause of this vaginal issue thick white not chunky vaginal discharge smells like strong fish when aroused i'm also on depo provera (medroxyprogesterone)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You need to go: to healthcare provider to get checked for vaginal infection, such as bacterial vaginosis, or trichomonas, or yeast infection. On Depo if it's within treatment guidelines you should not be pregnant. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
