I'm wondering if the discharge I'm having right now is related to the Replens product or if it's a yeast infection.

Question

Two or three weeks ago I had a yeast infection with a cottage cheese like discharge and vaginal itching. I took the 3 day canestan treatment by compressing it with the cream and after that all the symptoms were gone. I then started using Replens long lasting vaginal moisturizer a few days ago and began to notice a discharge similar to the yeast infection I had had but it was more like a hard "motton" and of a different texture.

Hello Mrs, Replens can indeed cause spotting without it indicating a problem. However, the only way to find out is to stop using it for 1-2 weeks. If the discharge continues after this time, or if you have other symptoms, you should consult a doctor to rule out other causes. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
