Since I am old enough to be your parent or grandparent my advice to you is this: Anytime you think something is abnormal with your body function you have two people to turn for the CORRECT ADVICE. The first person to turn to for advice for women type problems would be your mother,as you should have in this instance. The Second Person to turn to for advice would be you family doctor or gynecologist. If what you are writing about had happened in school you could have gone to the school nurse as well.
It is not that we don't want to answer these type questions or that anyone on this site would purposely give you wrong information. We are not doctors an therefore not allowed to give medical advice. Even if we were in this instance I believe you would be advised to see a doctor for examination as we cannot examine you over the web and you need to be examined in this instance by a doctor to see if anything is wrong.
From what I remember from human anatomy and physiology I don't think there is anything wrong. This does not mean you should not talk to mom or see a doctor. You should do one or both.
Never be afraid to talk to mom about anything going on with your body, it is understandable you would not want to talk about your sex life when you start to have one. Anything else though you should be able to talk to mom openly about; remember she is built just like you are and is the best person to determine if something that is happening to you needs to be seen by a doctor.
Also if you are over 13 you can see the doctor without mom being in the exam room with you and the doctor is required by law to keep your medical confidentiality. Meaning the doctor needs your written permission to tell anyone what you are being sen and treated for. The law is called HIPPA. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
