Hi,

According to your history the possible causes of your symptom are:
- During the second half of the menstrual cycle, especially during the premenstrual period, under the influence of progesterone hormone increased thick vaginal discharge can be seen sometimes.
- Primolut-N contains progesterone is can also lead to the same effect but drug-induced.
- Pelvic inflammatory disease, some times can present with increased vaginal discharge.

Vaginal wash with PH between 3.5 to 4.5 can help in decreasing the physiological vaginal discharge and also drug induced vaginal discharge. If the discharge persists even after using the wash, better to consult your gynecologist and get the examined to find out the possibility of pelvic inflammatory disease, in that case you may need systemic and local antibiotics to treat the problem.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
