Discharge Issues? Not likely to be pregnant.?
I've been on the patch continuously (no off weeks) since November 2010, I switched from birth control pills because they nauseated me. A few weeks ago I had what I think is breakthrough bleeding. It was heavy enough to be like a period and lasted the whole week. Then I just had a lot (more than normal) white discharge. I got a kidney infection, went on medication, and now it's a lot of it, but it has a yellow tint (medication causing this?). It's driving me crazy. I think it may be a yeast infection, but it's runnier in consistency than what I know they usually are. I'm no stranger to the yeast infection. Any medication I take usually causes one. Also, it doesn't really smell normal, but not fishy.
-I don't have a STD or STI, I and my boyfriend of a year have been tested.
-I'm 20 years old
-Yes, I do have a boyfriend. We do have unprotected sex. But I've been on this patch for awhile now so it shouldn't be an issue.
Since I've been on the patch so long, I don't think this is pregnancy. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas of what could be causing this before I head to the doc.

It could just be the way your medication reacted with your body. It doesn't seem like anything you should worry about unless the problem persists for an extended period of time.
If you are still worried and the symptoms do not get better, I would head to the doctor just to be safe.
