weird discharge?

[naturalfiction.livejournal.com]

hey all! This is my first post (and my first visit in quite a long time...) and I'm kinda concerned...

Around last year my discharge changed from kinda snotty and clear, sometimes kinda whitish and always very elastic, to thick, white, penny-scented goop. I didn't think much of it until I was actually at the gyno for the first time in july.

I asked him if it looked weird to him and he said no, it looked normal.

I barely ever get wet when I have sex anymore, no matter how much foreplay is involved.

My gyno put me on microgestin (generic of loestrin) fe 1/28 for a month, then I switched to tri-nessa (generic of ortho tri-cyclen lo). I've been on the pill in general since july.

should I find a second opinion? Literally it changed in like a day, there was no itching or anything... has this happened to anybody?

I'm guessing that your discharge from before the hbc was just how it changes throughout your cycle. Your discharge now could be attributed to the hbc, which (please correct me if I'm wrong!!) can dry you up.

You are correct -- HBC can play merry havoc with "normal" vaginal wetness. Some people get really wet all the time, and some dry up. Dehydration can also be a factor, though.

This was something I thought of too, except that I went on hbc in july 2011 and my discharge changed in november 2010. :S hbc certainly has dried me up though! Haha
