 sorry i cant help im wondering to h xx

If you're talking about vaginal discharge it depends on what the discharge is and how it looks...  If it's white-coloured and very sweet/sickly smelling it could mean that you have a bout of thrush...  In which case you'd need an over-the-counter treatment and, in repeated cases, you'd need to see a doctor.

Otherwise, vaginal discharge is pretty normal... but doesn't 'mean' anything especially.

I do not know if it has anything to do with it, but I had that happen to me a week or so before I got my first period going again. While I was ever underweight, I do not recall this ever happening to me. I think it did stop for me when being underweight. Hope someone with a better explanation comes along.

It realy depends. It may be a sign of a yeast infection or part of your natural body discharge. Just fyi I have gotten my period back at extremly low weights. That did not mean I was at my healthy weight because I was not. Yes it is important to have a period but it is not the only indicator of healthy weight

 id second that i had a friend ip who had her periods at a bmi of 14 she said she felt like a failed anorexic.

ive had discharge to if you are worried id ask your doc , it could be just your body starting to work again h x

I was wondering this too. After I started recovering in April, I got spotting/a light period in May. This was preceeded by a bout of cramps and discharge. I haven't gotten it since (tiny relapse :( ) but HAVE gotten light discharge since. Actually (tmi!!!) I have it right now and I'm really, really hoping it's a good sign!!!
