Thrush is also known as a yeast infection. It can cause thick, lumpy disharge. It also can cause a strong, unusual odour as well as itching or burning.

Once diagnosed as thrush (and not an STI/STD), it can be treated very quickly with tablets.

Thrush is bacteria that it's nearly impossible to avoid in your life. Things that will decrease the chances of getting an infection are wearing cotton underwear (so your vagina can breathe!), allowing your vagina to air out at night (no underwear), and avoiding anything that might irritate your sensitive skin.

Discharge is how your vagina cleans itself out. A healthy vagina will have clear discharge (or white discharge during ovulation) that is not strongly or unpleasantly scented. This is a normal thing that happens to every female.

thrush is in your mouth, i think it's like a yeast fungus thing.

discharge comes out of your vagina, regularly.

BIG DIFFERENCE. Discharge just comes out of ur vagina, thrush is a yeast fungus that is in your mouth. It's just sort of an infection that won't last forever, but if you think you have it, ask your doctor
