Whether your discharge is stretchy, slimy or sticky, a white clear discharge before period is a way you can understand “what’s next”<\/em> in your menstrual cycle.<\/p>\n

Depending on the texture and volume of your vaginal discharge before next menstrual period, you can tell if you are pregnant or not, or if ovulation has been delayed or not.<\/p>\n

If you are consistently having sexual intercourse without protection, a clear discharge before period may indicate you may be pregnant.<\/p>\n

This type of discharge may also indicate normal ovulation process that occurs in your menstrual cycle.<\/p>\n

Ovulation is the rupture and release of one or more eggs into your uterus, and it may cause women to have a clear and slimy vaginal discharge. If your ovulation becomes delayed, it’s possible you may now have experienced a clear slimy discharge before your period.<\/p>\n

Then again, you may have a clear sticky discharge before period. This type of vaginal discharge is also normal and a way your body is telling you ovulation period has passed<\/a> and your period is just around the corner.<\/p>\n

This article explains what a sticky, slimy, jelly, creamy discharge before period means, and when you should worry about pregnancy, vaginal infections or other medical problems.<\/p>\n

<\/span>What is normal vaginal discharge?\"\"<\/span><\/h2>\n

A clear white vaginal discharge without smell is normal discharge you should have. It indicates your vaginal area is healthy, and you likely do not have any infection down there.<\/p>\n

Vaginal discharge is produced by glands located at the cervix, and depending on the effect of hormones, you will experience a watery, thick, less than normal or so much vaginal discharge.<\/p>\n

If your discharge\u00a0smells, it’s likely because there is a problem down there. Likewise, if your vaginal\u00a0discharge color is not clear white, but rather greenish or yellowish, it means there is something wrong.<\/p>\n

Though whitish discharge may always seem normal, women with a yeast infection will have a thick clumpy white vaginal discharge that will occur with itching in your vaginal area. Also, bacterial vaginosis causes women to have a whitish fishy smelly discharge that is very offensive.<\/p>\n

<\/span>What causes white clear discharge before period\"\"<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you are just a few days away from your period and now experience a clear looking vaginal discharge, here are the possible causes.<\/p>\n

<\/span>1. \u00a0Normal vaginal discharge<\/span><\/h3>\n

A woman’s vaginal discharge is normally\u00a0clear and whitish in color. At times, your vaginal discharge that commonly looks whitish may become yellowish after exposure\u00a0to air (oxidation).<\/p>\n

This is not abnormal, and provided you do not have vaginal irritation and burning, there is no reason to panic about your milky white or yellow discharge.<\/p>\n

However, if you experience vaginal burning, itching, smelly discharge, soreness and painful urination, it means something is wrong down there.<\/p>\n
