I did today the weekly health check and I noticed some white-ish, slimey liquid coming out of Cupcake's genitalia and some crusts around. It wasn't smelly, and it didn't look like puss.
No other issues were observed and the piggy is active and eating well.

Is it something normal? I have the impression that she has/shortly finished her season..
Should I make an appointment with the vet?

Thanks

Hi!

Please have her vet checked. Something could be going wrong with her womb or ovaries.
All the best!

It’s always a good idea to get a vet to check a piggy with any concern.
My vet has always said she’d rather see a healthy piggy with a cautious owner than someone who leaves it too late.
Please let us know how things go
 
So, Just had a visit at the vet

Of course that there was no discharge from her genital area anymore, but I had some pictures with me.

The vet said that she doesn't feel any cysts or lumps and that she would be too hung to develop cysts (she is 4 months old). She said that everything looks great down there.

I have to observe her and look for any discharge every 1-2 days and if I notice it again they will need to x-ray her.
