I've unfortunetly been and am in your situation right now. & I know how horrible it actually is. But, I honestly wish I could tell you what's caused it. But I can't. It doesn't matter how many times you wash it or how long after you shower until it smells. Like you have bacteria inside of you right now, and you need somewayy to get it out. =/ This could possibly just go away from drinking a lot of fresh water. Because it might flush away the bad bacteria, but then again it might not. I've been in your situation for a really long time, and I know exactly what you're going through. But you need to tell someone about this RIGHT AWAY, like your mom or sister. Although it'll be embarassing at first, it's like the only choice you really have because you don't want to smell gross n have discharge for like the rest of your life do you??
I'm actually going to the gyno next Monday, so if you want IM me @ nainerzzz, & I'll tell you how everything goes nn stuff. I'm hella nervous though, hehe. =/
IF you clean down there TOO MUCH, that could potentially make it worse, so try not to like use soap & body wash too much. & Changes in your diet, like adding Vitamin C more to your diet, might change that too. But seriously you need to tell someone about it, because that's really the only way you can get it treated. :( I'm sorry, and good luck to ya! [ naimee's advice column | Ask naimee A Question ]

I'm not sure if that's the way for you to go, though; age may be a factor. Ask your doctor. [ exton's advice column | Ask exton A Question ]

However, if the discharge is chunky, has a foul smell or itches, it could be a sign of a vaginal infection. I would suggest talking to your mom and getting an appointment with the gynecologist for a checkup just to rule out an infection. If it is an infection, it can be treated pretty easily with creams or antibiotics. [ ncblondie's advice column | Ask ncblondie A Question ]
