Discharge
12 Answers
Bit of a strange one. I have had a watery yellowy coloured discharge for over a week now. It does not have an odour at all and I have no soreness, swelling, itching or redness, So I am not sure it's an infection. I am post menopause, fit & healthy. Any ideas before I bother the Dr

With no other symptoms it could possibly be...
Atrophic vaginitis
After menopause, levels of estrogen change dramatically and this can cause changes in vaginal tissues called atrophic vaginitis. A thin, watery discharge, sometimes blood-tinged, may sometimes occur, along with inflammation of the vagina and thinning and shrinking of the vaginal tissues. It only occurs in women who are post-menopausal or whose ovaries have been surgically removed. Symptoms may be aleviated with the use of topical estrogen creams.
Always worth a talk with GP or practice nurse.
