My friend might be pregnant, and is taking a test today, but isnt sure if its just an infection or something. I know this may be gross, but she says it is thick and clear and doesnt smell weird or anything. What can cause this? Infection? STD? Pregnancy? Thanks for your help!

I got increased discharge when I was pregnant.
Tips to get rid of discharge: Sleep with no underwear, wash underwear in fragrance-free detergent, use conditioner on your pubic hair.

It doesn't have to smell to be an infection. So many things can cause a change in discharge. She should really make an appointment with her gyn to be sure. A lot of women self-medicate thinking they may have just a yeast infection when it could be a sign of something else. Also, if she thinks she is pregnant, I am guesisng she had unprotected sex. Many STD's can cause a change in discharge. Again, she should see her gyn and get tested.

It could actually be caused any of the things you mentioned, but even if her pregnancy test comes back positive, I wouldn't take for granted that the pregnancy is what is causing the discharge, she should check in with a doctor either way to make sure it's nothing serious that could cause harm to her or the possible baby if left untreated.
