Last night my BF noticed i had a lot of dried white discharge on my underwear and i think it kinda freaked him out. He asked what it was and i told him simply enough that it was discharge. And of course he was unsure what that was, and i told him its a way for the vagina to clean itself out. He's like oh okay. But i could tell that it bothered him for some time.
Some background... About 4 or 5 months ago i started Yasmin. I noticed an increase of vaginal discharge (white mucus, throughout the month), almost to the bad amount (because it was a lot and would stain my underwear). It was a lot but i really didnt think anything other than it was a side effect of the pill since i had switched to a higher amount of estrogen. No oder, no itching. Nothing out of the ordinary except the more discharge. Now i didn't really see this as an issue, but my BF does.
We were each others first and only, so i can cross out STD's. Does this happen with anyone else? ITs like the opposite of vaginal dryness.... I just need to ease his mind. I do plan to call the dr. but would like your opinions.
Thank!

So long as it's not present with any odor, itching, burning, strange colors or textures, vaginal discharge is NORMAL.
