A milky discharge that smells like fish is the classic sign of bacterial vaginosis. Some women may also experience cramping or pain with sex. See your health care provider if you're having discharge and pain, as you need an exam.

How do you know whether you have chlamydia or a UTI?

I am not a Doctor or anything, but I can attempt to answer this question based on my own personal experiences. Although a yeast infection can have a funny odor, it is usually different from bacteria. Bacteria usually has a foul-like "fishy" odor. The discharge is usually thin, and clear. A yeast infection on the other hand, has a cottage cheese like discharge, and the smell is usually "musky". Not to mention a yeast infection itches like mad, and can be very annoying. My suggestion is to go to the Doctor and not to try and diagnose yourself, because although you can get medicine for a yeast infection over the counter, medicine for bacteria can only be prescribed, and trust me the longer you wait on either on of these infections the worse it is. Hope that helps,

You had your period 2 weeks ago but now you feel loer abdominal cramping and also milky like discharge are you pregnant?

I would think you are going into the ovulation phase of your cycle, with the discharge being the first sign of fertile mucus. The discharge will increase, then become clearer and stretchy like egg white - at this point you are most fertile. The lower abdominal pain could be ovulation pain which can be a dull ache.
