Hi there, I'm a girl, virgin, 17 this year and I been having this embarrassing problem that I have been keeping in me. I do not know who to go to or how to cure it. My vagina lips or the lips that is covering the clitoris is a bit swollen and normally before mensturation comes, I will be having white disposal from my vagina. It doesn't itch or have any pain but sometimes it smells like salted fish. Sometimes it's odorless. The soreness and swollen lips doesn't go away. I tried washing it everyday with medical soap and it doesn't work. I tried researching online to find what is the soreness about and I have no idea whether it is an yeast infection or whether it's a bacterial vaginosis. It is not very serious, no itch, no pain just swollen lips that doesn't seem to go away. I do not know where should I go to get it cured because I'm only 17 living in Singapore and I can't tell my friends about it because I'm a bit embarrassed.

You need to have it seen by a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Thanks for the quick reply but I'm unsure where to get treatment or rather where to get doctors to check if I really have it. The only clinic I go was the private clinic I ever go since young when I'm sick.
