Relax! There's nothing to worry about.
At different times in a woman's cyce, her body produces signs of impending fertility including an increase in temperature, a change in cervical position and what you're experiencing now, cervical fluid. The type of fluid discharged changes according to where you are in your cycle and how fertile you are. The more fertile you are, the more fluid. At this point, it might be egg- whitey, or very creamy and stretchy. If you are not on birth control, do not have unprotected sex unless you are trying to conceive, because this probably means that you are extremely fertile.
While you can't stop it, once you have ovulated and your cycle progresses, the discharge will continually lessen until eventually you will be almost dry until your period starts. If it bothers you, try wearing a panty liner.

Could be nothing. I notice around the time I ovulate I tend to have a bit more discharge, in which case it goes away on it's own. Do you have any other symptoms? Like itching, swelling, or burning on urination? Could be a yeast infection. If it really bothers you, you could go see your gyn.

It really depends on what that discharge is ... is it yeast? or sexually transmitted? If you know the difference and its yeast, then go to the store and get some monostat 7.... if you dont know which it sounds like you dont.. go to your doctor or a clinic.. you will need some antibiotics. And if you do nothing it can get worse or the symtoms will go away but it can be harmful to you on the inside... so go get checked out

this could mean a ton of things, change in hormones, due for your period, pregnant..getting older, or a yeast infection..there isn't much you can do for it, other than the yeast infection. wear a panty liner..and see a gynecologist if it really bugs you.

It probably means that you are ovulating.
