Heavy discharge during ovulation
I am having heavy discharge for 4-5 days during ovulation for last 3 months. Its watery liquid sticky discharge.
Due to this the inner thigh is getting infected as it stays wet long time.
This time..small bumps if infection and now they are peeling off and the new inner skin red is visible.. its irritating and uncomfortable.
Please help for inner thigh infecrion and I am very concerned about this heavy amount of discharge .

A watery, stretchy discharge in the days around ovulation is a normal hormonal pattern, but this much for four to five days straight, keeping your inner thighs wet, points to more being produced than usual, or a mild vaginal infection adding to it. The skin breakdown and peeling you're describing comes from the constant moisture and friction, not a separate problem.
Next Steps
Change your underwear or add a panty liner when the discharge is heaviest, and keep the inner thigh skin dry with a mild barrier cream until it heals. If the discharge develops an odour, itching or colour change, a vaginal swab can check for infection.
Health Tips
See a gynaecologist if the skin doesn't heal within a week, the discharge keeps increasing, or you develop fever or pelvic pain.
