You have not described the discharge, but I get a slight discharge when I eat sugar. It is like clockwork -- too much fruit/sugar/agave/maple syrup/dates/etc., discharge. None of those things, no real discharge. It is not like a yeast infection per se in its description more just whitish/clearish and thin. But it definitely responds to sugar.

Just one idea.

I don't know if this will be helpful or not but.... Do you use panty liners? If you do see if you can find one that is unscented. That may help especially if you are experiencing itchiness.

I've used Balneol for problems in this area (a non soap cleanser) found at drug stores BEHIND the Counter as it's expensive.

Since we're on personal topic: are you at or near menopause or pre-mature menopause? Sometimes funky urinogenital stuff goes on during this peri-menopause time......

Oh my gosh! I am so glad to read that this does occur, tho I am sorry for your discomfort. I am new to the gluten-free world. My 6 year old daughter and I were both recently diagnosed with Celiacs. She has the discharge, only it is darker in color. I gotta say tho, when I give her Colloidal Silver with her morning water and pure organic lemon juice in her night water the discharge gets lighter and disappears. Mine too. I think it is because we have been eating more dairy and sugar than we used to. We are cutting back on that now but continuing the Colloidal Silver and lemon juice. A Naturopath suggested that the alkalinity in our bodies needs to come up, hence the lemon juice. The Colloidal Silver because it kicks Candidas hiney!

Just an idea...

I've had a discharge forever, it seems. It got lighter when I sewed my own pantyliners out of flannel, as apparently even the non-scented pantyliners seem to cause a heavier discharge (making you buy more, I think it is intentional).

But since I've been on a parasite cleanse (I'm on day 12), the discharge has completely stopped! I especially noticed the absence of the smell that would accompany the discharge.

I'm so glad someone brought started this thread! I have been having issues with this for along time, but I've always been too embarrassed to say something to my Dr. :ph34r::rolleyes:

Confusedks, don't be embarrassed! We're all in this together. Ursa Major, which parasite cleanse are you using? I tried one for children with my daughter, but her poor intestines are too sensative right now and it caused her too much pain. I would love to do a parasite cleanse that is gentle tho. I'm wondering if maybe a homeopathic cleanse would work. Anyone have any ideas? We've cut out dairy and way down on the sugar, but I would love to clean out those nasty bugs and get a whole new start. It's hard enough for her to not be able to eat what "everyone else does" (breaks my heart) and I have never been more menu creative in my life!!

Me, too, with the discharge. It only started after my last pap exam (which was extremely painful for some reason - but it came back normal). I feel I'm perimenopausal, and it has something to do with it. Mine is dark, and it really stains my underwear - I use bleach along w/tide unscented/soak it; but it doesn't come out.

Plus, I've noticed I seem to be susceptible to pain associated with uti's, at times, in conjunction with the discharge.

I am using the Humaworm cleanse, and they do have a children's formula.

I am not going nuts. For years I have had a discharge thought that it could be invisible blood, that was causing staining. Now I reading many others have the same problem. I am just starting Celiac testing. I believe I have the Celiac disease, which has caused liver problems. I have many stomach problems. IBS. acid reflux, and the list goes on.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
