(Sorry) increased discharge

Hello!

I'm curious if anyone's experienced a change in their discharge in terms of there being more, and a lot more fluidy?

For info: 47yo on, 2x pumps of Oestrogel, mirena coil which has just been replaced. It started before the coil change, and hasn't settled. I have done an STI test and had a swab at the Dr for BV.

It's not smelly, or particularly odd in color. There's just a lot of it and I find I have to wear pant liners a lot or my knickers get quite wet.

Has anyone had similar? I'm due my smear soon so that will hopefully rule anything more sinister out.

I should add, I tried a thrush tablet as well, as the nurse doing the swab for BV said it was almost like a watery thrush. But no itching etc.

Yes, I bought a bunch of reusable pant liners.

Seems to be a soggy time of life tbh.

Ha! Okay, this helps. Half of what helps is knowing you're not alone!

It's like a period, in that I can be doing something and then get the sensation of it shooting out of me.
