What Could Cause Vaginal Discharge?

Hi there, Today I noticed thick gel-like discharge building up slightly at the front of my vagina. Just now, while sitting at my computer, I felt like water was leaking out of me. I stood up and liquid ran down my leg. It s odorless, and definitely didn t feel like it was coming from my urethra. Any idea what this might be? I had intercourse on the 11 August, and took the morning-after pill on the 12th. My period started on the 18th of Aug, and is therefore due around September 17th. This isn t the first time I ve had this clear discharge. It happened to me earlier this year, in about May. I then got a cervical smear test done and it showed up normal. Any help with this one appreciated! Thank you.

Hello,

The discharge is most likely normal cervical mucosal discharge. It is nothing to be worried about. Hormonal pills can cause such increased vaginal discharge.
