First off can you get BV without having sex?? And is it normal for discharge to have an odor? What are the signs of BV? I'm a virgin, and my discharge has become very liquidy and kind of frothy and I have had a lot of it lately. Is this normal? It's white, but by the end of the day by the time it has dried it has a very strong odor. (sorry for the graphic details) What's wrong with me?

You should go see a doctor, increased amount of vaginal discharge and ordor was mild infection in my case. But in sister's case, it was due to polycystic ovaries.

Sounds like you have a yeast infection,its pretty common and easy to get without having sex.It can be set off by wearing the wrong panties,too tight of pants,dye in toilet paper,antibiotics, even from laundry detergent that didn't get washed out ,bubble baths the list goes on ,go to your Doctor to make sure,also there are over the counter treatments for this,take care

Yeast infections can happen without having sex, it's a result of improper care. You need to keep the area clean and dry, wear cotton underwear and relatively loose clothing. Symptoms are usually a milky-white or creamy discharge and itching. You can buy treatments at any pharmacy.

You don't have to be sexually active to get an infection. By experience, it is most likely a yeast infection. No matter what, consult your doctor about it to make sure it is on record. Also, you can go to the local drug store and purchase Monistat (or something similar) to treat it. Yes, you can treat it yourself.

Ok if its not a yeast infection ...it just means that your body is changing. Many women experience what you are describing it is just a sign from our bodies that we are changing. If your still uncertain go to your doctor.

You have a yeast infection. Purchase some Monostat from the drug store and wear looser pants for a while. It's perfectly normal, hon.

if it smells like fish it is probably bacterial vaginosis. yes, virgins can get this, it is not an std. it is caused by an overgrowth of bacteria. this is caused by many things, one of which is douching. see your doctor, you need prescription antiboiotics
