Yes, discharge does normally get thicker closer to menstruation...but you're unlikely to see the changes at first, it takes time to recognise how your body changes leading up to menstruation. Typically 2-3 weeks beforehand you will get a clear stretchy dishcarge like eggwhite, then 1-2 weeks beforehand discharge will get heavier and white like lotion.
In the middle of the menstrual cycle when ovualation occurs you should have a clear, stretchy discharge kind of like uncooked egg whites. It is also possible to have a thick, white to yellow discharge .
When vaginal discharge becomes thin and stretchy this is also called "egg white cervical mucus" it appears when a woman is most fertile , during ovulation week , this type of cervical discharge aids sperm to swim faster and survive longer in the reproductive system , to produce pregnancy , the stretchy vaginal discharge may come right before or during ovulation , and may last a few days after ovulation .
A white discharge usually means a vaginal infection.
No. It can be a symptom experienced in pregnancy, but it does not indicate pregnancy. If you are having excessive discharge, call or see a doctor, it could be harmless, or it could be something a bit more serious that can only be taken care of medically.
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.
White discharge is normal throughout pregnancy.
Sometimes. But you're usually getting close to your period if you have white discharge. Give it a few weeks , if you miss a period take a pregnancy test.
It's best to keep track of your period either by noting down periods in a calendar or via a period tracking app, or better still would be to learn to use fertility awareness method so you know exactly when your period is due. Your body will change leading up to your period but how it changes varies from person to person, discharge is the biggest sign with stretchy clear egg-white like discharge 2-3 weeks before menstruation then thicker white lotion-like discharge after ovulation up until menstruation.
No not necessarily. Woman can naturally have a white discharge, implantation bleeding, frequent urination, tender or sore breasts etc... Are symptoms. If you think you may be pregnant do some research and see if you have pregnancy symptoms also I recommend taking a pregnancy test or going to see a doctor... And if your discharge concerns you consult your gynecologist and see what he/she tells you about it.
Discharge starts as you enter puberty, typically menarche (first period) will start within four years of entering puberty - however there is no specific time frame. Your discharge will change before your period so it's worth paying attention to your discharge - 2-3 weeks before menstruation you may notice stretchy clear discharge like egg-whites which feels wetter, between then and menstruation your discharge will get thicker and white more like lotion. Just before your period you may also notice 'spotting' which is a little blood in your discharge, this will be brown, pink or have spots of red.
