Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Yesterday I had white clots after intercourse near the vagina. Getting pain as well as a lump in my right breast near the nipple 8 to 10 days before my periods start. Kindly suggest me a treatment for it. Is it something that I have to worry about?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The white clots after intercourse are nothing but your partner's semen. Pain and lumpiness in breasts before periods are due to hormonal effects on the breast. Nothing to worry it will come to a normal state in a few days.

I hope this helps.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
