What Causes Greenish Mucus Vaginal Discharge During Pregnancy?

Hi, I m 22 weeks pregnant and for the last two weeks have been having a light green mucus discharge, sometimes quite stretchy. I had my 20 week scan 3 days after it started and the sonographer said everything looked fine to her, that my cervix is closed. I m beginning to worry as it s becoming more frequent and never had it with my first pregnancy. Please advise Regards , Thabi

Hi
Health care magic users
Greenish discharge is not normal, you must be having vaginal infection due to pseudomonas or canddial infection that you must get treated otherwise it will harm your pregnancy
Please start thia tablets
T metrogyl 400 mg TID
CLINGEN VAGINAL PESSARY FOR 7 DAYS
and if after treatment still vaginal discharge is there than please show to near by gynecologist
THANKS
