Hi,
Thanks for writing in to Healthcare Magic!
Stress is not a cause for vaginal discharge of this type, rather the discharge can lead/aggravate to stress.
There may be a local/hormonal/infection cause for such a discharge.
It would be advisable to undergo a local examination by a gynecologist to ascertain which one of this possibilities is a causative one.
I hope the advise would be helpful for you.
