What is Vaginal discharge....see the test for it

Vaginal discharge is the biological fluid secreted from the vagina. While most discharge is normal and can reflect the various stages of the menstrual cycle, some discharge can be a result of an infection.
 In bacterial vaginosis, discharge can appear thin, gray, or white, increase in volume, and is adherent. In yeast infections, discharge is described as resembling cottage cheese. Trichomoniasis causes greenish-yellow, adherent, frothy discharge and can cause an increase in discharge. Bacterial infections can cause discharge containing pus.
