Another symptom of cervical cancer is the abnormal vaginal discharge which is characterized by smell, color or consistency. However, the unusual discharge may be colorless or odorless in some cases.

  • Smell – Unity Point of Health suggested that there is a tendency that cervical cancer cells lack oxygen that results in the die-off of cells and infected tumors. This infection produces a foul-smelling vaginal discharge which can be another warning sign for cervical cancer.
  • Color – The continuous vaginal discharge can be watery, brown, and pale or mixed along with blood.
  • Consistency – It is usually thick and sticky.

A vaginal discharge is not always a cervical cancer, but it is fact that the strange discharge cannot be normal. Any unusual discharge must be consulted by a gynecologist as soon as possible.
