A member asked:

Stop takin birth control had cycle for 9 days aug 22-30 now have a lot of discharge clear to light yellow no smell what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vaginal infection: This sounds like a vaginal infection or a cervical infection. You imply that you are currently on Metronidazole which is used to treat a vaginal infection called bv. If you are not responding, or there is a persistent discharge, then you need to go back and have cultures of the vagina and cervix redone.
