If its a watery, grayish discharge with a fishy odor it could be Gardenella, a bacterial infection. If you have a curdy discharge it could be yeast. Being that its summer, if it is just "sour", its possible, even that it is perspiration. First try extra showering and see if that helps, (like in a day or two), if not, then talk to your parents about it.

Sounds like a yeast infection. Women get them all the time. You are in the clear of a STD if you haven't been having sex. Go ahead and tell your parents so that you can go to the Dr.s so they can determine what it is.

HI you need to go to the Dr. Could just be a yeast infection but it needs to be diagnosed by MD. Otherwise you could be setting yourself up for possible damage to reproductive system.. EPSOM salts are a type of salt you buy from drugstore- used to soak sore stiff muscles or tender areas.i.e episiotomy sites, hemrrhoids etc. Ask your MD about this as well.

No... you may have a yeast infection or (not to scare you) have contracted some kind of STD. It's normal for a women's body to cleanse its self, but their should never be any smell. You could try douching too... see if that doesn't take care of it. I hope all is well for you.

It's probably an infection, go to the doctor. As to your other question it's Epsom salts. People use it in warm water to soak muscle strains, sprains, their feet. It's also used in baths.

No it could be a infection and you might need some medicain. It could be a yeast infection or vaginal or even UTI. But you need to see a doctor very soon before it becomes to bad

You could have a yeast infection. Go to your gyno and just get checked, that will be the easiest and probably the fastest way to fix whatever it is.
Good luck.

No. No new smell is normal.
Especially a sour or musky smell.
Time to go in and get it checked out..
Infections need to get cleared up especially in the vaginal area asap.
