Vaginal discharge can come in various forms. While some vaginal discharges can be normal, others may be due to some underlying issues ranging from the use of Intrauterine Contraception, Uterine masses or infections which should be investigated. For this reason, it will be advisable for you to see a doctor for proper examination and appropriate Laboratory investigations which will include a culture of your discharge to confirm the affecting organisms and the antibiotics for their treatment. In order to avoid a repeat infection, it is also important that your boyfriend is also treated.
