Asthmatic Using OTC Mucinex To Relieve Phlegm. Could This Cause Secretion Of Sticky Discharge From Cervix?
Hi, I'm 17 years old and recently I've been taking mucinex to relieve some phlegm in my lungs. I'm asthmatic. However, from using this over the counter medicine I've been experiencing some gooey clear discharge it's very sticky. I'm wondering if the drug might be expelling mucus from the mucus like plug in my cervix. If you have any answers it would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I would like to know what other medications you are taking for asthma apart from mucinex? are you sexually active or have any disturbances/irregularities in menstrual cycle? Mucinex (Guaifenesin) is not known to cause the side effects you are reporting. You should get yourself checked for any sexually transmitted disease (STD). Regards
