Different Types of Vaginal Discharge Mean Different Things...All woman are different and discharge is unique to the individual but here are some helpful guidelines.
Thick and white: Thick, white discharge is common at the beginning and end of your cycle. Normal white discharge is not cum or a yeast infection. It may have a light scent and a bitter flavor.
Clear and stretchy: This "snotty/slimy" discharge is "fertile" mucous and means you are ovulating. No scent or flavor.
Clear and watery: This occurs at different times of your cycle and can be particularly heavy after exercising or when turned on. May have a very light scent and little to no flavor.
Yellow or Green: May indicate an infection or poor diet. Infection is likely if the discharge is thick or clumpy like "clumpy" like cottage cheese or has a strong foul odor and a very strong flavor.
Brown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" the old blood from the vagina. May have a light scent and taste like iron.
Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur at anytime but especially when you are ovulating/mid-cycle, after aggressive sex or because of stress. May have a light scent or a strong "raw steak" smell and taste like iron.
