…I have been taking birth control since last June. I was wondering if this could mean anything. It doesn’t itch or smell and it is white and stretchy.

Variations in vaginal discharge are natural. Discharge changes according to the menstrual cycle and changes in hormonal levels. Many birth control methods can change your hormones and affect your vaginal discharge. It’s a healthy habit to pay attention to the variations in your own discharge so you can tell when it gets unusual for you. It’s important to see a health care provider if you are concerned about your body and your vaginal discharge. Providers become concerned if discharge is itchy, has a foul odor, or has a dark or greenish tint.
