Strange Vaginal fluid
Hey. I'm 25 mother of 4. My youngest is two but the delivery was pretty traumatic for my uterus I think. I hemoridged and ended up with the doctors hand inside my uterus pulling out clots and sticking gause up in there with tongs!?!? Four medications later my uterus finaly shrunk down so the blood vessils would close but I wonder how all that effected me. My cervix is weird, off center and understandubly open all cycle long ( I used to use fertility awareness method so remember a firm closed cervix) I would be concerned about that if I planned on having more children, which I don't! :)
As for my main concern, ever since my post pardom bleeding stopped I have had weird vaginal fluid. I know what healthy fertile fluids are prior to ovulation, and I still have most fluids when I ovulate, but they are no longer clear and silky strands, it's more like chunks of stringy globby goobers (sorry TMI) It is sometimes very light green but I have no itch or odor. I went to the doctor once and was given antibiotics for a vaginal infection. I was stupid and didn't finish it because I was being paranoid about the meds giving me a yeast infection...I thought enough yogurt and fluids would be enough. But then it continued. I went to the doctor again but this was post ovulation and little fluid was present and nothing was off, even got a normal pap. I explained the fluid I have prior to ovulation and she said I should come back during that time. It's just hard to schedule for the right time and I feel it's not an emergency to try to get in the day it's weird...although I'm getting fed up enough with concern over it to go ahead and go already! I'll just schedule and do 50 jumping jacks before hand to shake the stuff down! I feel some pain sometimes and chalk it up to ovulation, though I never had it before. I say I'm just experiencing normal stuff and was lucky in the past to be so abnormaly normal. Also, during my pregnancy I moved from a humid climate to a high elevation dry climate and wonder if these changes could be due to dehydration, sort of how when dehydrated I get gunk in my throat. I will google 'dehydrated vaginal fluid' and 'damage from hemorige during labor' while I wait for a response! Thanks... Tricia

Okay, from an almost dead end google search something finally struck me, not common, but "pelvic inflammatory disease can be caused by an infection of a woman's reproductive organs due to childbirth...

I wondered if I could have gotten an infection from all the hands down there! I searched thick discharge and abdominal pain on that sight and results were all STDs. I'm faithfully married, but what if he isn't...unsuspected cheating happens all the time :( I won't go there unless I discover it is an STD! Calling Monday for an apt, wish me courage and correct wording. I blab here but zip it w/ the doc!

Also...I had a UTI recently and so I asked them to check for vaginal infection as well and they said they could only check one thing per appointment, how stupid is that!?
