Its started a couple days after I had sex for the second time. I can put a tampon in to stop it from coming in my underpants, but its still there. I cant go to the gyn. What is it. Can I fix it myself?

Hiya......firstly.....ignore some of the rude people on here, who clearly have nothing better to do than insult you.
Ok, firstly, did you have protected sex? If you didn't, i know you dont want to, but you must be seen by a doctor, as you may have an STD. However, dont panic....it may be nothing serious! But dont use a tampon! Vaginal discharge can be very normal.
Consider the time of month.....if you are around the middle of your cycle (ovulation) then the discharge amount increases. This is normally white/clear. It can also increase just before you come on your period.
Otherwise, it may be some form of infection. Some you have to go to the doctors for, and others you can buy treatment for over the counter. You may have a yeast infection (thrush). The symptoms of this are a white, "cottage cheese" like discharge (yes, strange analogy!) Also, it would smell like yeast. You may also be itching. This can be treated by going to the pharmacist, and can be treated with a one dose tablet called flucanozole.
However, if the discharge is yellow/green, then you definately need to see someone about it. Dont worry if this is the case. Antibiotcs will be able to treat it. And you can ask for a female doctor to examine you. Also, the visit would be totally confidential if you are worried about your parents finding out.
However....if you are having sex, it would be wise to get yourself to a doctor to see about going on the contraceptive pill, as im guessing you dont want to get pregnant. At this visit, you could mention the strange discharge.
Good luck, and stay safe.

Probably nothing. If it starts itching and looks like clumps it could be a yeast infection. Get an over the counter treatment, but one that's is at least a 3-day treatment (not one of those one day things).
If you can't go the the gyn, you probably really can but are just too afraid. This is important- if you think you can't get pregnant or can't get an STD you are CRAZY. I'm guessing you're not on birthcontrol. Go to your local county health building, Planned Parenthood or your school nurses office- they have to help you and they can't tell your parents.
As other people are instructing, take out the tampon. It could make it a lot worse.

Seriously? How do answers like the one above (Yuck?) seem remotely helpful?
First of all, are you practicing “safer” sex? Remember that the HPV virus can cause ovarian cancer… which is almost always detected too late and has a high mortality rate. Seriously, no guy is worth that. Not to mention the risk of herpes and HIV! Untreated sexually transmitted illnesses (STIs) can lead to infertility and even insanity (look up syphilis!!). Always remember, “NO GLOVE, NO LOVE!” Write it down.
Okay, so the funky smell… Does it smell like beer or bread?
Is the discharge white? It may be a yeast infection which can be treated over the counter. Go to a Walgreen’s or CVS.
By the way, you can always go to a Planned Parenthood for information about these issues… and information about birth control, sexuality transmitted illnesses, AND more information about the ****responsibility**** that comes with being sexually active.

Doesn't sound like anything to be too worried about really...
Most women have a slight white discharge at some point during their cycle.
This might be a bit mingin... but if it wasn't protected sex, is it possible that it is semen?
Get in the bath and give yourself a good clean out, if you know what i mean. A proper internal clean... not soap, just clean warm water.
That should sort it out for a short time, if it persists then you might wanna give it a day or two and then look into a treatment for thrush.
No improvement and you might wanna go to the GP.

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.

i did no longer examine this !! in`complete !! atleast as of yet !! ...MY wager is: it truly is an abundance of semen that he's had saved up !?! probably for particularly sometime now !?! & or... possibly it replaced right into a sort of cases that when he'd climax.. you the two rolled over & went to sleep !?! & or only rested do to each and all of the artwork you the two would've positioned into it !?! & probably after resting `bout 10/quarter-hour went at it returned !?! & what you're noticing is the spent semen & the release mixed jointly !?!... i'm uncertain !?! yet yet & nonetheless I advise that when everytime the male is "SPENT throughout the time of intercourse... cleansing soap & WATER must be positioned to apply as area of the clean up/freshing up in case you will !?! If the comparable is observed days later... i'd say it somewhat is a`little greater severe than you think of !?! G/L~!!! r'`R`'r

Oh dear Girl... hope you had safe sex.
It could be an allergic reaction to latex, but from the sound of it (i.e. the time delay) is is an infection.
Get yourself checked out ugently, you don't want to risk complications, and there's always a chance of toxic shock.
I would be cautious using tampons with an infection like that.
(Sometimes I curse knowing stuff like this.....)

If you are old enough to do the deed, you are old enough to take responsibility for your own health. Since I gather you have had unprotected sex (very dumb), the best case scenario is that its a yeast infection.
Find a family planning or free clinic in your area and get it taken care of. Yes, you will have to see a professional for it. Next time, protect yourself!

If you cannot go to your Gyno becuase of money or parents, go to planned parent hood. they can help you out. also, try calling the doctors and ask to speak with a nurse, they might be able to help you over the phone.
I wouldnt wait longer though - make sure to get checked out as soon as possible. Use panty liners instead of a tampon for now.
