Once again, abnormal discharge is either yellow, green, or another color besides clear or white-milky color.  Another common symptom is a fishy odor which is often accompanied by itching, burning, or irritation.

Hello and thank you for sharing your question.

The vagina cleans itself by eliminating waste through discharge.  This is perfecting healthy and normal.  

Abnormal discharge is yellow, green, or has a strong odor.  These symptoms can also be accompanied by burning or itching sensations.  If you have any of these symptoms it can be due to different things such as a viral or bacterial infection.

The kind of discharge you are experiencing however is normal and no cause for concern.

Yes, I understand.  That does not signify anything irregular or abnormal.
