What Causes Abdominal Pain With Non-odorous Yellow Discharge?

Posted on Mon, 20 Nov 2023

Question: Hi I'm 47, just had my period last week. I have lots of fibroids. Today I had a dull ache on the right side. I took Advil and it went away. Now I'm have lots of non-odorous, yellow discharge. So much, I've put on a pad. It has a gooey, egg-like consistency. My last pap (this year) was normal.

What could be going on?

From the history it looks like infection.Pain followed by yellow discharge.It could be even degeneration of fibroids esply submucous.
You definitely need a gynaec check up at the earliest including an ultrasound scan.
Hope my answer helps you.

Thank you your answer.

I do have a pretty large submucosal fibroid. I can actually feel it when placing a tampon. I have, according to my OB/GYN a 4 month size uterus and my plan is to have a hysterectomy at some point.

The volume and consistency of discharge was my concern. I was completely soiled! It has slowed down.

Hi
GREETINGS
You can plan hystrectomy later but get a per speculam examination to find out from where the discharge is coming.Also any polyps?
Hope you are convinced.

I'm not sure if I have polyps. I will schedule an appointment ASAP.

There's just so much discharge. I'm so worried. Praying it's not something serious.

Thank you so much for your answers!!
