    Mucous question - WARNING TMI!!

    I've been getting a very dark mucousy discharge over the last week and it smells very offensive. (I'm so embarrassed to be telling strangers!) I've started showering twice a day in case others can smell it. I'm also quite nauseous and having dizzy spells on and off. Does anyone know what this might be??

    I haven't had a period since Feb, but I ususally only get them every 3 or 4 months, but I've never had this before.

    Thanks for any help!

    Sounds to me like you may have an infection (but i am not a dr). My best mate had one after giving birth to her DS. She had a very strong smell and if i stood next to her even i could smell it. Hers was a nasty infect that req'd IV antibiotics so make sure you get checked so it doesnt get too bad. As embarrassing as it may seem if its to do with your health you should not be embarrassed (easy to type i know).
    I hope you get some anwers soon.

    i would have to agree & say it sounds like an infection eg UTI or could be thrush... i would go to the drs & get it checked out..good luck
