Probably not yeast: Yeast could do this but probably not. Contrary to popular belief, vaginal discharge is not usually a symptom of yeast, but of other kinds of genital infection, such as STDs, bacterial vaginosis, etc. The main symptom of vaginal yeast is itching and irritation. If there is discharge, usually it is scant, thick and white, sometimes described as "cheesy". If sexually active, get checked for STDs.
