Last month, a few days before my period, I had one day of greeny/white lumpy vaginal discharge.
Now I've had thrush before and it looked a little like it but I had no other symptoms like itching, burning or pain. The discharge didn't smell offensive either so I decided at the time to leave it and see how it was the next day. The next day it had gone completely, and I started my period a couple of days after. All fine, normal.
Today, the same thing has happened. I noticed a few little lumps on a tissue, had a bit of a closer inspection iykwim.
Again no smell, no other symptoms. I'm due my period next week.
I believe I'm peri menopausal (47) and I have been for 3/4 years. On and off symptoms, light periods but I've always been fairly light. Lasting longer, sometimes 10 days.
Mood affected, weight gain, breast tenderness, lethargy, insomnia..... you name it I seem to have had it. Pretty much all these symptoms are transient and vary greatly from one month to the next.
I had never suffered with my periods prior to this, as I said always light, never any pain.
I use condoms when having sex with my husband, and 2 or 3 times in the last year have bled lightly after (more pinkish discharge) but it's not every time.
I'm a bit flummoxed really, is this also part of peri? Whats the likelihood I do have thrush or an infection? Again I'm going to see if it persists and act accordingly but I'd quite like a range of opinions.
