chat with an OBGYN

Asked Aug 3, 2012, 10:19 AM — 1 Answer
Hi, I am 40 and have had increase vaginal discharge. Been checked for BV and yeast infections, but clear. Is it possible I am entering periomenopause? I do not want to be on the pill, as it made me depressed and killed my sex drive. I am worried that if I pursue any treatment, my lubrication will go the other way, and I am just starting to enjoy sex for the first time in my life.
Is a pantiliner my best option...?

You're a bit young for perimenopause, but maybe. Do you know how old your mother and her sisters were when menopause started for them?

Yes, a pantiliner should work. Just be sure to report any problems to your doctor.
