Vaginal discharge is normal. It is your vagina's way of cleansing itself out. Every woman will and does have it. Trust me, if you told your mother she wouldn't even bat an eye as she experiences too as do all women.
The only time when discharge becomes an issue is if it's a weird color such as green for example, smells extremely bad, looks chunky like cottage cheese. If this is accompanied by itching, raw, sore genitals it's signs of infection or perhaps an STD if sexually active.
Below I have pasted a great article for you that explains the purpose of vaginal discharge and tells you what is healthy discharge versus bad discharge. you cannot get rid of the healthy kind but you sure can about the ones linked to infection and STD.
There's no need to see a gynaecologist over discharge unless you have the symptoms listed above. Here's your link to that article [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
You really should talk to your mother about it if it's something you are troubled about. While you think it's embarassing it really isn't as she knows all about this being a woman and all and probably had the same fears and concerns as you do when she was your exact same age.
When it comes to any aspect of your health be it sexual or otherwise and you need assistance you have to reach out to your parents inorder to check that everything is fine.

Discharge is completely normal, even at excessive amounts. However, if you experience a fishy smell or a bread-y type smell -- have it checked out, because it could be an STD or a yeast infection.

hey, well discharge is normal, as long as it isnt discolored or smells funny. if its either of those things, im sorry you have to tell your mom or someone that can take you to see a doctor. you wouldnt want it to get worse would you? if its normal, just wear pantyliners.
