Girls, is this normal or should I get this checked out?

[Anonymous]

I'm almost 17, I don't know why my age says older. Wel anyways, I have tissuey discharge :/ there's nothing different but that. And I find it weird, is this normal, weird or is there something I could be doing, eating that's causing it?

[lizziepooh03]

Ummmm, I am not sure what you mean when you say tissuey discharge. I know it may be uncomfortable to do so but it will help if you are more specific.

[Asker]

Urm like thick, as if it was left over toilet paper in my most grossest but specific description. But it's not toilet paper, its discharge but all of a sudden to, and there's nothing else wrong no smell, nothing

[lizziepooh03]

You should consult your physician and not take advice from the internet...

With that said, it is normal to have a thick white discharge in the middle of your menstrual cycle. This indicates you are ovulating and this thick discharge is your body trying to help facilitate any sperm trying to impregnate your egg.

But again, you should seek professional advice about this so please consult your doctor about this.

Ok thank you

[fay23]

what do mean by tissuey? is it the texture or does it look like tissue? what color is it?

[Asker]

It's like, toilet paper... grossest but accurate description I can give... but like wet thick toilet paper

[fay23]

that doesn't sound like anything I've heard of tbh. I do get discharge too but it looks white and or it's clear.

[fay23]

does it hurt?

[Asker]

Yeah it's usually that for me as wel, but this all of a sudden weird. Like thick and It seemed so weird to me

[Asker]

And no

[fay23]

I think you should go to a doctor just In case. I don't know if you're sexually active or not tho but I think it could be hormonal

[Asker]

Urm not having sex, doing sexual things with my boyfriend yes, but not sex

[fay23]

then it could be hormonal or like diet related

[Drooogie4]

What do you mean by "tissuey" ?

[Asker]

Like it's almost as if wet thick toilet paper.. as gross as that description is

[Drooogie4]

Oh.. hmmm..
Just, randomly?

[Drooogie4]

Are you itchy?

[Asker]

Yes just randomly and no, not at all

[Drooogie4]

Cause ejaculate can look like that... but to have it randomly is a bit odd. But probably okay?
I mean, whenever you get a pap smear, ask?

[Asker]

Ok, thank you and I know it's not that... from me or anyone my boyfriend and I haven't had sex yet nor have I had any

[Drooogie4]

(Female ejaculate) as in, from you... if i didn't make it sound that way. wouldn't necessarily need sex.
But, if it isn't correlated with arousal, then that isn't it.

But having no smell or itch, etc.. i wouldn't panic. But, it wouldn't hurt to bring up to your doctor

[Asker]

Yeah, it was correlated with arousal at all and ok I'll bring it up though, thank you

[Drooogie4]

Actually.. are you on birth control?
If not, during ovulation that may be more likely

[Asker]

I'm not on birth control, and I'm about to get my period so that might be it

[Drooogie4]

That could be probable.
I've been on it for so long i forget what its like to cycle normally hahah

[Asker]

Haha I've been told that happens, I've been wanting to go on it. But with my bible thumping parents it's hard until I'm 18

[Drooogie4]

It makes life easier, thats for sure.
And, even being under 18, if you really want it, a Plannedparenthood would be able to get you some Im sure.

[Asker]

I didn't think about that, I'll look more into that. My boyfriend and I are waiting as we both are young, but, it'd be nice to be on it incase anything happens

[Drooogie4]

I mean once you're 18 a doctor can get you some. But, yeah. If you really want it before, theyre great for that. And you can probably get it for almost nothing.

[Asker]

Ok thank you, I didn't know this. I'm glad to know it now

[Adigelunar]
