You most likely have a yeast infection. If you are sexually active, see your doctor since it might be an STD. If you are a virgin, it is probably a yeast infection. Look for over-the-counter treatments at the drug store - they worked for me!

As long as it doesn't smell horrible, it's COMPLETELY NORMAL. All women discharge a small amount of fluid throughout the month. The fluid can be clear, white, or yellowish. Discharging this fluid is how the vagina keeps itself clean and healthy.
If the "stuff" you are discharging is not clumpy and doesn't smell like rotten fish, then it is normal and you have nothing to worry about. It's just part of growing up. :)

I agree with Benny. Please talk with your Mom asap. She will understand, I promise. If it is a yeast infection you may be experiencing cramps also. If in doubt always ask your Mom. She has more experience than you know. Don't be scared of her. You may need to see a doctor just in case(cause it smells). Open up to your Mom. She will put you at ease. Sorry you feel so alone in this. I hope that we all helped you. Good luck.

Ok......first ......have you been sexually active? If you had, then there's a chance that you can have a sexually transmitted disease...especiallly if there was no protection being used. Also, if no sex, then there is a chance you may have a yeast infection. You'll need to tell your mom either way. Never be afraid of being honest with your mom. She was young once, and knows how it is to be young. You may need to go to a doctor, but first, have a talk with your mom. I wish you the best of luck.

It's discharge. It's your vagina's way of keeping itself clean, no big deal. Just wear a panty liner. Trust me, your mom has had the same problem.
