 Hello,
Has there been any change that occurred about the time this heavier discharge started? Sometimes medications, diet and/or hormones can affect the secretions. Without odor or discomfort it is not worrisome; just bothersome. Does this change with your cycle - varying in amount or consistently the same?
I'm sorry I can't give you more information but it is possible this is just within the range of "normal" when compared to other women and typical variation. Vaginal discharge typically consists of about a teaspoon a day (white or transparent), thick to thin, and odorless. This is formed by the normal bacteria and fluids the vaginal cells put off. The discharge can be more noticeable at different times of the month depending on ovulation, menstrual flow, sexual activity and birth control.
Best wishes.
