RE: uterine discharge

[Guest guest]

No. I know that when I go through

the picture dictionary, we show yellow mucus and say that is most associated

with an infection or irritation. Cervical inflammation, cervicitis,

cervical ecruption, cervical erosion… I do know that it can be a

sign of infection as well. Since childbirth or surgery can irritate the

cervix, this does occurs in such cases.

This is often confused with mucus that

occurs around the time of ovulation.

The Creighton Model does have the ability

to work with clients that fall into this category and to help them to easily

identify the mucus that is associated with ovulation. If you have a

Creighton Model practitioner near you, perhaps she/he can work with you to help

your client.

uterine discharge

Has anyone ever heard of the uterus (not

cervix) excreting a stretchy, cloudy, possibly yellow mucus discharge due to

low-grade infection? Maybe following childbirth or uterine surgery?

Something that would be confused with fertile cervical mucus.

Check doctor Hilger's book. This summer at the conference he talked a lot about pre-term labor and mentioned something about a chronic wet discharge being a possible sign of low grade infection. That's not the same as mucus, but check his book, if you have it, and see what it says.
