Do all women have some sort of discharge and what is a normal vaginal discharge?

yes! every vagina will need to be cleaned. it wouldn't be clean without the discharge.. it's usually just a creamy, clear, sticky sort of goo. it helps fight disease in that area and cleans out after periods and that

Hi guys,

The person who wrote above me is right, your vagina cannot stay clean if you don't have vaginal discharge so yes, all women have vaginal discharge. 

I don't really know how to explain to you what exactly is a normal vaginal discharge because I don't know that (I don't know what is it made of or things like that) but you already know that it exists just for cleaning your vagina and I think that that is all that you need to know about it. If you ever happen to notice that your vaginal discharge is weird and smelly, please call your doctor.

Yep, everybody gets to have a vaginal discharge. I had mine when I was 15 years old, I showed it to my mom, I wanted to hide it at first because I thought that there was something wrong but I figured out that even if there was something wrong, my mum would be the one to help me so I just showed it to her and then she explained to me about vaginal discharge. I never had an abnormal vaginal discharge but I've heard that that can mean that there is something really bad causing that, like some dangerous conditions and diseases.

Hi Guest,

Like others have already told you, every single woman has a vaginal discharge, there is no doubt about that. 

If you ever happen to experience a vaginal discharge that is not normal, trust me, you will know that it's not normal. It will be smelly and it is going to have a weird color while a normal vaginal discharge is not going to be smelly at all and it will be transparent or it will have some kind of a milky color. You can use different articles on the internet regarding vaginal discharge in order to feed your curiosity. 

Every single woman experiences it even though some of them wouldn't want to experience them but they don't really have a choice (I am one of these women, that is why I am mentioning it). I don't know, I simply don't like it when I get my vaginal discharge although it is completely normal, and I definitely don't like my menstrual cycles. It is not easy being a woman at all but what can you do about it, you have to learn how to live with these things. Well, I learned how to live with them but I don't like them at all.

Hello there. Definitely, they have. Every single woman in this world has discharge. 

It is totally normal and there is no reason to be scared when you see it. All you need to do is to observe it well and to see are there some changes in it.

Correction, I would not say that every woman has a discharge, but most of them do have had vaginal discharge and like you already know,  not all discharges are normal. The amount of discharge is different for each woman, which means that some of them have more than other.. Others have discharge every day.

And also, you should know that some normal discharge can change after some time. 

Hi there. I am 14 years old and I noticed some discharge on my panties three days ago and I notice that it has a pretty weird smell. I don't want to tell this to my mom because we do fight a lot. She believes that I have a boyfriend, that we do have intercourse all the time and I am somehow sure that she will tell me that I have some disease or infection. And I know that I don't have it because of it. To cut long story short, my discharge is pale yellow and it smells like dead fish. Some of my friends from school told me that it is normal to have discharge in our ages...

Hello everyone.

Scared Teen, look, I understand that your mom might be hard to handle, but in this situation, she is your only friend. Tell her what is going on, be calm about this and I am sure that everything will be OK.

Pale yellow discharge is not something that you should be worried about, but this smell can indicate a certain infection. That is why you need to find a way to visit your gynecologist. And about this - your friends told you that it is not normal to have discharge in your age - don't worry, it is perfectly normal. 

I have one problem as well. Sometimes I think that I don't have any type of the discharge. For two days I have it and next week no discharge at all. But, when I have it it is usually yellow or brown, very rarely my discharge is white. So, I was just wondering is this normal? Should I be scared that something is not OK with me? Do I need to take some medicines to control this, to make this normal? I was talking about this with my friends from the school and they told me that I am probably sick because of something. I never had intercourse, I never had any issues down there...Now, I am scared.

Look, you should not be scared. Read some previous posts and you will see that not all ladies have the same texture and color when it comes to discharging.

I think that you should see your gynecologist (I understand that you are scared), but I don't think that you are sick. As I can see, you are still in your school and your body is developing, you are growing up..You can't suddenly have discharge like older ladies.

Usually, normal discharge is white, a little bit creamy without any smell. But you have time to find that out :)

Enjoy your day!
