I don't know if this will help you or not but I believe it helped me. I've had my belly button pierced for years and had problems with the scar tissue and discharge for a while after I had it pierced. After my lap over 2 years ago the discharge started again but worse and had an odor to it, After my Lupron was finished I had gotten my nose pierced (my sort-of mid/mid life crisis since I took it out a couple months ago) and the place gave me this sea salt-water solution to clean my nose piercing with called H2O. I used it on my belly button and it completely got rid of the discharge and odor and (knock wood) I have not had a problem with my belly button at all since then. I'm starting to have the endo problems again and may have to have another lap and if I do, I am going to stock up on the solution and q-tips. 2-3 times a day for about 8 weeks is about how long I used it for the last time. I hope you find something that helps for you. I know how embarrassing and annoying the discharge can be and how frustrating it is to deal with.
