Q:

My boyfriend and I had sex last night, and when he took off the condom, there was yellowish almost booger-like stuff on it. It kinda looked like squishy soft yellowish curds. What is that? I just had a pap smear a month ago and all my results are normal. Am I ok?

Thanks!

 

A:

If you haven't been noticing unusual vaginal discharge, irritation or itching, then this is most likely vaginal secretions, which can be thickened during part of the cycle. Yellow discoloration of the discharge, rather than white or creamy, is less common, and can be an indication of inflammation. If you are noticing change in your discharge yourself, or irritation, it is wise to have a provider do a microscopic exam done of a sample.
