This is prolly going to be to much info, I dont even know if this has anything to do with pcos but I'm deperately looking for answers and looking for them anywhere I can think oh..here's my problem...
I dont know whats wrong with me, but I know something aint right...Hopely this message won't be too graphic for you, but anyways I have alot of white discharge (its not yeast) they keep saying its BV (bacterial vagonisis) but when the test come back its negative for bv, yeast, ive been tested for clymedia ghonnerah...The tests say I have natural vaginal flora..so I'm guessing its a normal discharge but I don't think its normal to have so much of it. I've been trying to figure out why I have so much of it..ive read that its normal too have some white but its so much it wets my underwear, So its gotta be something that is normal like a cleaning mechnism or a reproduction issue...One site said it can be from progestrone http://www.actionlove.com/cases/case9887.htm was the site...
then someone told me that their mom had alot of white discharge...the way to explain it..its like like a drip, not a water drip but like syurup drip from a bottle like that consistancy not chunky at all like yeast. And she said she had overactive ovaries and she had to have it removed, but everytime I look like overactive ovaries it gives me info on pcos..So I'm just trying to figure out anything that is wrong with me since doctors always want to think its BV but when they test for BV it comes back negative..I swear all they think that happens down there is either STDS or BV or YEAST, they dont want to think that the discharge can be something else...one doctor told me that its coming from the cervix, by the way I'm 22 F (married)
I'm sorry if this is too much info once again...Please reply if you have any ideas or any helpful info
or is it kinda watery white??? alot of pcos just have alot of discharge bc of our overactive hormones..but if there is a smell..maybe you should go ahead and take the meds for bv to make sure..
has hubby been checked out thouroughly? xoxo jenn

all the time, or just during certain parts of your cycle?

I do have some discharge, often white, almost all the time. I've always been told it is normal. Now that I'm having regular cycles again (thanks to low-carb) I am seeing the discharge change over the course of the month to include watery and EW as well.
What are your cycles like? Are you TTC?

I'm doing low carb as well ive lost about 45lbs...Last month cycle came 40days since the day it started and if im right the one before that was 30days...I'm not trying to concieve although we've talked about it, i just want to make sure everything is working properly...I dont want to hurt the baby if there's something wrong with me, I'm still kinda young, I want to wait a yr after I get to goal on low carbing so I can enjoy my hot bod for a yr b4 i have a baby...I"m 149 now I'm thinking 123-130ish...Thanks so much for your help, Do you know any info on overactive ovary? or progestrone probs?
Is it like eggwhite? Like if you touch it, and you can pull it between your fingers? How often are you getting this discharge? Is it every single day?, or is it once a month? If it is once a month, then that is because you are ovulating. I have the same thing, happen to me. But reading, and researching found out that it is because i was ovulating.
I have the same kind of discharge everyday. It is always worse in the mornings too. It's like it collects at night. It drives me crazy because if I try to go without a panty liner I have to go into the bathroom quite often just to wipe and get any of it out of my panties so that it doesn't soak through.
I've only recently began to work at the low carbing and I've noticed that it is much worse when I have a day that I eat a lot of sugar.
I'm sorry I don't know how to help you but I haven't found the answer yet either. Maybe this will at least make you feel better that someone else has the same problem. btw, my dh just thinks that I get really turned on when he initiates sex because there's always so much moisture. I don't correct him because I don't want to burst his bubble. lol
I'm in the same boat you are, except I haven't been treated for BV.
Here's a thought: I've heard that if your main pathways of elimination (sweat, urine, bowels) aren't working optimally, the body will use "emergency routes". One of those routes is the vagina. So....I'm starting to think that it's a "getting rid of toxins" kinda thing. Sound reasonable?
I'm new to the boards but have this discharge too. IT is like when you ovulate (white/clear egg-whitey in that it stretches sort of) but I have it more frequently. Yes, it will wet my underwear too. Feels weird. Not really any smell. I just wonder if it has to do with diet or PCOS or what? My GYN diagnosed me last year with IR but I recently saw an Endocrinologist and he thinks I have PCOS - all the classis symptoms. I should probably try to see if it is more or less frequent during differnent times of the month or if it differs with how I eat. Am supposed to be doing the Zone Diet but can't seem to stay a=way from the bread and potatoes - thus no weught loss.
I am noticing that the more sugar and carbs that I eat the worse it is. Either that, or I'm just getting back to the low carb thing as the discharge is starting to change because of the vitex. lol
