Thanks for query on HCM.
If the discharge is accompanied by a burning,itchy sensation or "fishy" type of smell, then you may have a fungal infection. It is very common, and can be caused even by a bit of soapy bathwater getting up there,bad hygiene.
This condition often comes after big hormonal changes. As the discharge is white, it may not be serious.
Take proper local care.
Avoid tight undergarment,avoid unprotected sex till get complete cure.
It is better to consult your gynecologist for proper diagnosis and medical management.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Usually after delivery, lochial discharge can continue upto 4 to 6 weeks.
During early weeks that can be blood stained and later turns yellow or white color.

Usually the smell of the discharge will be like menstrual flow.
If the discharge is having foul smell, associated with itching etc, there is possibility of infection.
In that case consult gynecologist once, get examined and if required go for vaginal swab culture and sensitivity.
Possibly by this the possible cause for your problem can be identified and treated.
Take care.
