ARGH!!! What is with this discharge??

Ok...so i'm getting really frustrated with this discharge of mine.  I have posted before about it...

and

(just for background info...)

Anyway, i am really desperate to figure out what this is because i can't go get it checked out until my classes are back in session...(the health center is still closed for break).  I just started working in an office yesterday and I don't know if it's from sitting more than I usually do or what, but whatever this stuff is is practically running out of me.  Seriously, it sounds gross, but i can't think of any other way to describe it.  and it's becoming thicker and "chunkier" :(  i went to the store today and got monistat 7 and some azo pills hoping they will help...any suggestions or ideas about this??

p.s.  I've also been feeling generally crappy lately...i dont know if that's related or what, but i've been really sore in my neck and lower back, and my stomach has been all screwed up.

I honestly DONT know what your talking about, so take this with a grain of salt and excuse my naivety.. do you bathe regularly? Do you suck water up into your vagina? I do unconciously, so every time I get out of the bath its like a stream of water that pours out. If it is thick and chunky and smelly it sounds like an infection of sorts (BV, YI, or Gardnerella) Could it be an STD? Clamydia, Trich? You really do need to see a doc, but in the mean time, wear pantyliners to save your undies, and your pants, and change them often to prevent infection if you dont already have one. There are lots of monophasic BCPs on the market. Im on Marvelon and I love it (but im also in canada) I think it costs about 13 bucks a month, but really that is pennies if it is up against your sanity. Good luck.

I am sure there are other monophasics out there.   Ask the nurse what else they may carry.

I tried to get the NP at my health center at the university to switch me to Yasmin but she said they don't carry it so it would be like 20 per month to get it from the drugstore (which I cant' afford right now) so I dont know what to do about that situation.  Are there other monophasic pills?

Also, this thing is driving me crazy...for those of you who know what i'm talking about and have gone thru something like this, does anyone know what i mean when i say that it almost feels like i'm peeing myself when this discharge comes out?  Because i've had normal discharge before and it's almost impossible to tell that it's happening, but with this one, it's like i feel like i have to pee or something and then it just comes out...???

I am having the same issue and i have totally quit my bc pills 2 wks ago to get AF going, all i can get is the discharge and brownish spotting going with it, it's driving me nuts also and i have been through the dr and do not have a yeast or bladder infection.

Ahh - I know EXACTLY what you are talking about.  I too had the same discharge a while back.  I went NUTS for over 6 months till one Dr. decided to switch my BC.  I was on Ortho tri-cyclen and she switched me to a monophasic pill (Yasmin).  Guess what...it worked.   I no longer have the heavy discharge (except now I have a little bit due to a BV infection).

Anyway, if you can, try switching your pill to a monophasic one and see if that helps!

Best of luck to you.
