What Causes Excessive Vaginal Discharge While On Fish Oils?
Hello, I just started taking fish oils about a week ago and my discharge has increased drastically. Every 20 minutes a huge glob comes out and it's starting to be really frustrating. There's not much of a smell, sometimes it smells like dairy. I'm not really sure how to explain it. I usually have discharge for a week after I have my period which is already annoying but this is insane. Is it the fish oil or is there other problems with me? :(

Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
First of all do not panic.
As such fish oil intake should not be the reason for this kind of increased discharge.
I will suggest you to get a gynecology check up done including per speculum and per vaginal examination to know about the cause of your discharge.
Sometimes cervical erosion or polyp can lead to such symptoms.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
