it's discharge .. and it's a pain in the rear-end.
you can get panty-liners, they are ment for this.


i got it really bad when i first started my period, but it's been four years now, and i dnt get it that much anymore.
so hopefully that'll be the same for you.

if it is really bothering you, ask your mom to go to the doctors.

best of luck ♥

The moist stuff on your underwear is discharge. Most everyone gets it, and some girls get it more than others. You don't have to wear pads all the time. Try just panty liners - they're thinner.

This is completely normal and almost every girl goes through it. This is just discharge, no big deal (but annoying i know). Although, an unhealthy amount can be signs of deeper issues like a yeast infection, or STD.

yeast infections are normal, they don't mean you are unhigentic almost every woman will get one at least once in their life. If you suspect one just go to the gynocologist and get some vaginal cream and it should clear up within a week or so.

If there are no other complications like excess redness, itch, or soreness then it is probably just discharge (which is most likely seeing that you didnt list anymore complications). In this case, here is a list of things that will cause or increase discharge production...
-Sexual excitement
-Emotional stress
-Ovulation (when you produce and release an egg from your ovary in the middle of your menstrual cycle)
-Extra estrogen (taking estrogen pills)

Now here are ways to avoid it...
-Keep your genital area clean and dry.
-Avoid douching. While many women feel cleaner if they douche after menstruation or intercourse, it may actually worsen vaginal discharge because it removes healthy bacteria lining the vagina that are there to protect you from infection.
-Use an over-the-counter cream or vaginal suppository, IF you know that you have a yeast infection.
-Try to reduce stress.
-Eat yogurt with live cultures or take Lactobacillus acidophilus tablets when on antibiotics to avoid a yeast infection.
-Use condoms to avoid catching or spreading sexually transmitted diseases.
-Keep your blood sugars under good control if you have diabetes.

good luck =]

It's discharge. Just wear pantyliners. It's really no big deal, every girl gets it and you have it for a long time. I don't know if it ever stops. But yeah, just buy pantyliners, they're thinner versions of pads and cheaper. You can get them scented too, because well, sometimes discharge can smell REALLY bad haha.

But yeah, it's nothing bad, evey girl gets it, and panty liners are a cheap and easy way to keep it from getting all in your underwear.

---ADDITIONAL INFORMATION---

Well I know you can get them at wal-mart
And wal-mart is like EVERYWHERE haha. But you can probably get them at CVS, Target, any place that has pads will most likely have panty liners.
