I have been having issues with discharge for a few years now and was wondering if any of you knew any solutions.my discharge is completely normal but rather heavy; i get it everyday often several times a day. I hate it because mine is white and it stains my panties which is embarrassing when my boyfriend goes to take them off. Other than being forced to wear a pantyliner everyday of my life, do any of you know any other solutions or ways to slow down the discharge? i'm on orth tri cyclen lo too, ive been on it for about 4 years now. it's just really annoying and makes me self-conscious. not to mention it stains my freakin panties

Any way to slow down/ stop discharge?
-
You should talk to your health provider about your BC pills. They might be causing the exessive discharge. See if there are any alternatives which will result in less discharge, but be just as effective.
-
Is that possible? I've never heard of birth control affecting normal vaginal discharge.To the OP:I don't know how if there's a way to lessen the flow of vaginal discharge. But I think it's more important to find out why it's happening so you can find a solution.It can vary from stress, diet (I think), ovulation, or a possible infection. I think you have a better chance in finding out what's going on if you go see a doctor.

Yes, it's possible, but the doctor will be able to tell. Ask your doc about Yas(mine).

I learn something new everyday on this board.

refrain from eating a lot of cold foods such as popsicles, ice cream, ice cold water, etc.i'm not sure why, but it's been proven that eating a lot of cold foods will cause excessive discharge and very heavy menstration.btw, i'm not telling you to stop eating cold stuff all together, i mean to restrict the amount. but if you don't eat a lot of cold foods, then yeah, visit a doctor or something.
-
Hm. That seems interesting. I learn a new thing everyday
-
Can you provide any backup to those claims?
-
For one, i, myself have experimented with it. two, you can ask almost any Chinese female or maybe even male, and they'll tell you the same thing.
It's like, a Chinese thing.
lol.Here is a link too.

I found some other ones, but they take too long to read, the one above is the only one that has a shorter read and more straight to the point.
I guess you can google it yourself if you want.Of course, other factors play in the fact of excessive discharge, but i'd say that cold foods is one of the major ones.
oh, and something bad bad bad is eating cold stuff DURING your period. I don't know why, but i just been told it's not good.
-
You read thet article wrong. It said hot foods cause heavy flows.. greasy foods dampness/discharge, cold foods cramps.
-
It is a Chinese thing. The link you gave us is based on a Chinese book. I don't know about you but I don't follow much on Chinese medicine.And I tried looking this up but so far, I've found nothing (in English) that supports your idea that cold foods cause excessive vaginal discharge.

oh. i recall that the google paraphrasing or whatever had that written in. my bad.
