I am an OB RN and work in L&D. There are a few different reasons. First, you may be ovulating. Second, you may have bacterial vaginosis, or some other type of STD and this is a sign. Third, you may be wither in early menopause, or have almost completed menopause. Check with you OB/GYN and have them test each of these. That is the best course of action.
