Posted on Tue, 28 Jul 2015

Question: Hello doctor...today I had protected sex (condom) with my girlfriend...after 3-4 hours she noticed some kind of white discharge from her vagina...she took an ipill by 11pm night...but still she noticed that white discharge...does this means she is pregnant??

Brief Answer:
This is not pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns aboutpossibility of pregnancy.

1. White discharge after I pill is due to increased hormone called progesterone.

2. This progesterone hormone increases white discharge by increasing mucous secretion.

3. This is not due to pregnancy. Hence don't worry about it.

Let me know if you need any more clarification.

Regards,
Dr. Soumya
