Hi Tera, thanks for sharing that! I have a feeling that is what is going on with me too...just too many hormones like you said. I tend to notice it more around my periods also. My doctor told me today that also nipple stimulation during sex can cause prolactin levels to temporarily rise and cause discharge. I had never heard this before and hubby and I have been TTC every month so this caould be part of the problem. I too have noticed the discharge since my mid twenties. Thanks again,Dona
