Definition:

Vaginal discharge is a clear, white or off-white fluid that comes out of your vagina. Discharge from your vagina is a natural and normal process, but changes to your discharge can be a sign of infection or disease. Women or people assigned female at birth (AFAB) have varying amounts of vaginal discharge. Some people produce more discharge than others, while others notice very little. Changes in the color, texture, smell or amount of your usual vaginal discharge may mean there is a problem. Most causes of abnormal vaginal discharge are treatable with medication.
