I know that question seems very vague. Let me explain: I'm a teenager and I am aware of the fact that hormones are involved with this problem. I'm wet allll the time. I have GREAT personal hygeine and I do shave my pubic hair daily. I don't always get the proper nutrition; however, I do eat many fruits. I'm not on any medications, but I do take vitamins. I think I can probably figure out the reason why Im always wet, but Im not sure why it's sometimes smelly? The smells are different most of the time, but they all are very foul. I heard baby powder might reduce the moisture? Is that true? I just need many options. It's starting to get out of hand. Thanks

Yes, I'm sexually active, I have had only one partner my whole life, and we're 100% loyal to eachother. However, I havent been sexually active for the past three months, and it seems to be getting worse.. Does stress or depression have any role in it?

Yeast Infection? But this has been a problem for the longest time, ever since I was a little girl. Is it still possible?

No, I'm not overweight. Actually I'm 5'7'' and only 120 lbs. I'm supposedly average. Not too thin or too heavy. I'm very athletic, I'm very clean. I do however blow dry myself down after getting out of the shower, The discharge isn't reeking smell, but it's just a white/clear fluid, that is sometimes sort of sticky..

You may have a mild yeast infection, get it checked out with a doctor, it'll only get worse without treatment. Pantyliners with deodorant will help too, and if nothing helps try using a tampon on the worst days. But tell your mom and see a doctor!

It sounds like you have a bacterial infection. They're different from yeast infections because they don't itch, but they do cause a bad smell and a lot of wetness. You would need to go to the doctor to make sure that it is a bacterial infection, and then he or she would have to prescribe an antibiotic for you, and then it would clear up in probably about 4 or 5 days. It has nothing to do with bad personal hygiene. Sometimes it just gets infected for no good reason. Don't be embarrassed! It's a hard organ to maintain.

You could have a yeast infection. What really helps is when you blow dry yourself down there after showering so no moisture can get trapped. Try it for a week, I'm sure it'll help.

yeah its probably a bacterial infection. but don't worry it isn't an STD if you go to your doctor and have her double check to make sure thats what it is you can get it cleared up in a week you just have to take antibotics for a week twice a day it you'll be fine also the discharge will lessen and it won't smell.

wear thin sanitary pad this will help reduce the wetness.Go tell your family doctor about the smelly leakage and he can give you a pap smear and see if you got any infections or need meds to clear it up.
