the nuvaring and discharge?

[viraleyes.livejournal.com]

Hello VP land! I recently started using the nuvaring (put it in on tuesday) after being on the shot for almost 2 years. This morning I pulled it out, and there was a LOT of thick, white, creamy discharge on it. I attempted to put it back in after washing it, and when it wouldnt go in right I pulled it back out and there was more on it! I can't imagine what this stuff is. I've never had a yeast infection, and that's the only thing I can think it is, but it doesn't smell bad and does not itch. the discharge is also a white color, which is what my discharge has always looked like, but i have never had discharge of such epic proportions! LOL.

So, should I be worried or is this normal?

I use the ring periodically (I'm in a LDR and prefer to use as little medication as possible, so I don't use it when we're apart), and I get tons of discharge. Usually it's runny once it gets to the outside, but sometimes it's creamy. I notice it coating the ring when I have to take it out, and when it's on the ring it's creamy.
