excessive white discharge daily

[hanabear]

Im 32 and having daily white discharge for years now. I know that discharge is normal and everytime I go for my yearly pap they say its normal but Im thinking that everyones AMOUNT of normal is different and Im thinking it even varies among doctors. My question is to the doctor, how MUCH is normal if you KNOW you are NOT being sexually aroused but STILL having excessive white discharge. How do my doctors know or I know how much is too much its not like we are measuring it. However, it is so much that I have been wearing the mini tampons for the past 5 years every day that I leave my house so that I am not wet all day. I am concerned with this most importantly because of the TSS that I am at risk for by wearing tampons and not pads. Its very frustrating that I should have to wear a pad (or tampon) every day, ISNT IT? Is this normal? Do most women out there where a panty liner on a daily basis due to discharge? Look forward to hearing from other women.

At first reading your post I'm thinking it's normal, but then as I read how you have to wear a tampon or pantyliner just so that your pants don't get soaked, I'm thinking It's NOT normal. I'd go see the doctor because although yes everyone does experience DC differently, I'd say there's still some general guidelines as when anyone should experience having more at some times than at others.. ..Did that make sense, sorry I'm kind of in a hurry but wanted to provide some help if i could. Call your doc and then get a second opinion. Keep us posted. this one is interesting.... Good Luck !  =)

[hanabear]

yes thank you for your response, I think so too I think my doctor is just lumping me into a category and not asking enough questions to find out that it is TOO MUCH. Therefore, telling me every time that it is normal. Anyway I guess thats where my asking MORE questions would come in, thanks for your help I will see a different doctor and keep u posted. If anyone has the same experience as me please let me know.

I guess bottom line question is this: Do you wear a panty liner or tampon daily to absorb the discharge, and if so do you also think its just not normal?

[angel1992]

I have been experiencing the same thing... but the DC is even worse when having sex...so bad that my boyfriend thinks i am cheating on him and that it is semen from another man... Its been stressing me out greatly so if you have any new info please let me know...

Hai Hanabear its nids I'm 23 and even I have white discharge from last 10 years that is exactly after my puberty. Even i have consulted many doctors, some say it's fungal infection and other say it's bacterial infection. I have never had sex with anyone. Can you please let me know if even you get the remedy for this problem. Hoping for the positive response.. Take care

[Kim1989]

do you know you have a natural discharge? this has been going on for the last 10 years after u hit puberty...are you sure its not your normal discharge?

[Jennavieve10]

I have the same thing as you and I want to know how to get rid of it because it is very annoying if find out please tell me

[anKin]

Hi girls! It's the same with me - i'm about your age, i have this thing ever since puberty ...I know it's normal because that's the natural way vagina cleans itself but it's making me feel so uncomfortable, UNCLEAN...Very annoying indeed! I haven't found any solution so far. I guess i should just accept it and wear the pantyliners daily :(

[twinkle_star_182]

omg i kno exactly what you mean! thats how i came across this site, because i was trying to find out if its normal or not! i find it very humiliating and thus makes me not end up having sex with people because im so embaressed! sometimes it doesnt reaally have a smell and then sometimes it does, like vinegar. i kno its crazy ..it really upsets me as iv been checked out and everythings fine!

[nigahigga]

omg girlzz, my finace has the same problem im just like omg what is that!!!!! Its like GROSE jeez. IM so DESSGUSTED O MY GOD WHY O WHY is this Happinign to me GAWD. Shes like SMELL IT!!!! Im LIKE WHAT.. Y would i do something like THAT EWWWWW. and then she asked me to TASTE IT!!!! W!!T!!!F!!!

[egib79]

Just read everyone's posts and I am with you gals, I don't get it either!!!  I am 30 and of course, like most of you, I have had a reg/normal discharge since puberty.  I gradually started noticing that it was increasing more and more with each passing year.  Especially after 25.  At about 28 I started to really get annoyed with the fact that everytime I would wake up in the mornings and take a few steps around the house, I would immediately notice the sticky, goo building up and sometimes start running down my thigh if I'm not wearing underwear!!!  YUCK!  GROSS!!  ANNOYING!!  Now, I wear a pantyliner every day (like it or not) if I want to stay dry and not completely soak up my underwear!!  It sux.  From reading and researching and asking my Dr, I've concluded that it's definitely hormonal.  Especially after ur mid 20's, ur body is preparing for motherhood.  So I guess I'd rather soak up pantyliners instead of my panties!!  No solution to this Frustrating Problem.

i believe its normal! have had the white discharge ever since puberty and was worried back then, now I dont have to wear panty liners anymore. I clean out every morning!! friend told me her mum (midwife) advised her to use finger to wash out every morning , have done that ever since with a good shower head (nothing fun with all the white stuff coming out @ that time of the morn) . Clean all day and panties dry till next morning!

hi girls, well, i had the same problem before, honestly i always wear pads too almost everyday.. Im working in a corporate and we have yearly check up (Medical exam) here. then i got called up from our clinic cuz in my urine sample found out i have an UTI, so they give me a week medication, aside from taking these antibiotic, my mom suggests me to drink fresh coconut juice to cleanse me inside and lots of clean water, and u know even until i finished of a week medication for my UTI, honestly i still drink a lot of water and a coconut juice every morning, until i noticed, gurls, that i havent got any problem with these white discharge, it just sudden.. as in non!...i never use a pad for a week now cuz its really clean. Yes not super dry but it is like my undies i wear is clean, im not kidding gurls, just want to share.. for me i think the good enough water intake and this coconut juice made me cleanse inside, it didn't smells anyway, swear.. why you girls try it, i recommend it.. drink atleast 2 liters a day (mine i almost drink 3 liters, and no kidding, it was started 3 weeks ago due to my UTI, until i got used to it). Just want to share, i think white mens is a dirt inside us and water made us pee to cleanse inside..water (Drinking water) is very healthy and thanks also for the coconut juice.. goodluck.. its aiane

[lilly_5]

hi, i have the same problem but not as bad as that yet, just wondering if cleaning and drinking water is the way forward or if there is anything better, because i hate it! it makes me feel so unclean and embarised! but it is good to no that i am not alone.

hi hana.
i have been having the same problem since i got married nearly ten years ago. i have 2 kids since.i have to wear a panty liner everyday to avoid getting soaked. i have gone to so many doctors and have had so many kinds of medicine inserted inside me. but the discharge comes back immediately after the treatment is over. it is really frustrating.
once i tries a traditional medicine - in the form of a capsule. to my surprise, it was gone completely! but the side effect was that pimples started breaking out. i never had pimples before. it really worried me. so i stopped taking the traditional medicine. so now, the discharge is here to stay :( still trying to look for other remedies though ...

[princessjadew]

what was the traditional medicine

[mommyof324]

All I can so is thank goodness I'm not the only one! Sorry ladies, but it makes me feel better:) I have had it some badly that it not only soaked through a pantie liner, but my undies and my jeans all at once! WTF??? I seriously want to cry at times. Oh and like tonight it happened when i was out with the girls waiting at the tanning salon. Straight through the liner, the undies and my pants....i wonder if i opt for my ovaries to be taken out if it will stop? I already have 3 kiddies and I'm not having anymore, so whats the point right? lol

[Jessikate]

Hey girls, Im only 18 years old and ive had this problem since i was 14. I remember in middle school it was so wet that i thought i had peed my pants. Anyways ever since then i have had to wear pads or tampons EVERYDAY!!!!!! im so annoyed....Im only 18 and i feel gross and that im different. I just want to know why this discharge is so heavy.....Its to the point where if i dont wear anything in my underwear that it will be soaked in about 5 to 10 min. I NEED HELP!

[prettykhris]

HI everyone I have had the same problem for years and I am 20. They really need to come up with a diagnosis and solution/cure for this because they continuously tell me that it's normal, and I'm thinking-no it's not!!! This can't be normal. Everyday my underwear is soaked, and although it has no smell most often, I am still embarrassed. Maybe we are not sexually aroused because we are too worried, embarrassed, and distracted by it. Luckily I am married and it doesn't seem to bother my husband. He knows how clan and OCD I am so he knows it's not something I am not doing to cause it. I JUST WANT RELIEF!!!

[Loup_sang]

I have the same problem (my discharge is clear) but its everyday that its there and until recently I was wearing pads everyday because of it. But I stopped because I found out that it isnt healthy to wear them all the time, they can cause infection, irritation and yeast infections and of course if you are wearing a tampon there is the chance of TSS. I would suggest you stop wearing the tampons and ask your doctor if there is anything you can do to lessen the amount instead of asking them if its normal or not that way your doctor wont just say its normal  but might help you deal with this annoying occurence. I wouldnt worry about it other than the annoyance of it because everyone is different...I have alot of discharge whereas someone else might only have a little so it is different from person to person.

[yeyet_05]

reading all your comments guys, made me feel somewhat relief. because all along i thought i was the only person in the world is experiencing such. i hate it when too much DC is being released. it makes me feel uncomfortable and unclean too. i'm always bothered that it might have this 'stinky smell" and that someone might notice it, etc. yes, i do have UTI. is this one of the causes? it has been more than a year since i experience too much DC.

[worriedvirgo85]

I'm also a female with this problem. It's not only uncomfortable, but its embarrassing to me. I always think that someone smells it it if I don't wear a pantyliner I am worried it will soak through my pants while I'm sitting somewhere and when I get up people will see. As much as I am concerned about a better way to go about this I have a different question. Will it ever get better with age? Will my discharge Get better years from now? I used to feel like I was the only one. I never talked to my mom or anyone besides my doctor once. This is great. I feel more like a woman and that this is just another obstacle that us woman go through on a day to day basis. I wonder what kind of remedies there are to help minimize it if possible. I know doctors say its better to have excess, than no discharge at all, but is there any chance of us getting to a comfortable medium?

[kulet1119]

hello guys. i have the same problem too, too much white mens, every single day since last year and it's very annoying, uncomfy & depressing sometimes..i'd been to MANY doctors and given me a lot of med, be it oral or something that needs to be inserted but nothing has changed.
to aiane:
i'll try the buko or coconut juice u said...i really want a natural relief this time. i'd been praying too hard..
goodluck to us girls..
