There is this white goop in my private area..what is it? Should i see a doctor?

Answer 1

Its normal to have discharge from your vagina every day. Some days there will be more, some days there will be less. Some days it will be thick and milky coloured, some days it will be clear and runny, or like raw egg white. If it goes grey or green and smells like fish then you have a bacterial infection. If it's thick and lumpy like cottage cheese, and itches, then you probably have a yeast infection.

Answer 2

It could be several things.

Toilet paper- it looks like body goop if you use super soft paper and it gets left down there, try using some cleansing wipes.
Smegma- perfectly normal genital buildup, just wash it off in the shower
Vaginal Discharge- It may just be a different color this week

If it smells really funny or strong, or is uncomfortable and you can feel it coming out it could be an infection and you should ask your mother/see a doctor.

Answer 3

Just before you ovulate you will notice a sticky discharge. This will go away in a few days. Another possibility if you have a white discharge and have been on antibiotics for a cold or any infection you could have a yeast infection. A yeast infection is a thick white discharge and itches like crazy. There are over the counter medication for this.

Answer 4

It's discharge, sometimes called cervical mucus, CM, or cervical fluid.

Cervical Fluid is the mucus that is secreted from the cervix. It is produced by the hormone estrogen in the first phase of a monthly cycle. Cervical fluid is an essential element to conception due to its ability to keep sperm alive for up to five days (in fertile quality fluid), protects it from the acidity in the vagina and transports the sperm to the outer third wall of the fallopian tube where fertilization takes place.

Cervical Fluid will range in abundance, consistency, color and fertile quality due to the increasing level of estrogen within the first phase of your cycle. Typically the changes in fluid will fall into the following pattern. CM can be white, clear, the consitency of egg whites, etc.

It's normal, and nothing to worry about.

Answer 5

Sometimes when women ovulate, they can get a white discharge that is totally normal...if it's a couple of weeks after your period, that's probably what it is so don't worry about it. Now, if it continues for a longer than a few days OR if it has any smell, then you should see your doctor.

Answer 6

yes.

sounds like a yeast infection but i'm not a doctor. i'm just some chick on yahoo. i wouldn't suggest just getting some over the counter product because it may be something a tad bit stronger and you'll need some antibiotics. go see an ob/gyn or go to planned parenthood. it'll be super easy to fix.

good luck.

Answer 7

It's probably a yeast infection. If you don't want to spend money on a doctor, then try Monostat first. You can purchase it without a prescription at any drug store. But if this does not help, then certainly see a doctor.

Answer 8

It is coming from your actual vagina? Then its just normal vaginal discharge. Perfectly normal and healthy. If it is white cheesy stuff forming on the vulva, it is also normal and not a sign of an illness. It happens when you skip a bath. Just wash really well down there and bathe regularly.

Answer 9

hun relax its an discharge its normal its a sing your period is coming and it cleans out the vagina but if it smells you should tell your mom so you can see a doctor if it doesn't smell an have bubble white goo then its normal every girl has it

Answer 10

Hello,
This may be candida albicans or yeast, this should be treated with any number of over the counter medications. Just to be sure, see your physician and have this treated.
