tmi!

So I've been having this yellow-green discharge today... It started after I had sex with my husband. Is that sign off infection?

Yes most likely.  You need to see a doc because infections need to be treated x

To be honest with you, it sounds like an STD. Get checked and tested right away, these things can have a horrible affect on you and your unborn child.

Could be a uti or yeast infection.

You don't get yellow or green discharge with uti... I've had many uti never changed discharge!

Yeah I've had UTIs before and it's not like that. It doesn't burn, itch or smell though. I'm 100% positive it isn't an STD.

Def need to talk to your doctor. Any time you  have discharge that is yellow or green and has a foul odor is a sign of infection!

Hi, I am not sure if it's the same thing, but I have also had a similar issue in the past. I always thought it was a yeast infection but my doctor always said my tests were normal. A few years ago I switched doctors and found out it is a different kind of infection that often gets misdiagnosed. Your body produces a bacteria to help keep you healthy. Sometimes My body produces too much of that bacteria and I get the yellow discharge. It could be that or something else. I would recommend you see your doctor either way.

I had that, & I had bv, it's an infection that they will swab you for.. If it's positive your doc will prescribe you meds, your man will need to get treated too. I had it twice cause the first time my bd didn't have any meds. Could be anything though, ask your Dr to check you.
