discharge after hysterectomy

I am 32 and had a radical complete hysterectomy (including ovaries) 6 years ago, because of acute pelvic inflammatory disease. Almost a year ago, my boyfriend was diagnosed with a severe UTI. I went to my doctor who suggested I take antibiotics as we could be passing the UTI back and forth. I asked him about checking for any possible STD's and he said the tests would be a waste of time as because I had no uterus, I couldn't hold on to any type of STD. Over the past 6 months, I have been getting a very thick white discharge. It is almost lumpy and it ends up on my boyfriends penis during sex. This has him and I concerned, not to mention it makes me feel very insecure with our having sex. I asked my Endocronologist about it and she just brushed it off like it's not a big deal, but didn't give my any further info. I don't know what to do, and am getting so worked up before having sex in case I discharge, that my sex life is suffering. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please?

Welcome!


It's hard to say if it's something or nothing.
