I am 19 years old and I keep getting this white creamy discharge that dries yellow sometimes it can be quite heavy and sometimes can have a slight smell but not all the time even though I shower everyday is this normal and can it be due to anything to do with me and my partner trying for a baby? Really confused and worried x

Sounds like a typical yeast infection. I'd go to your doctor and have them make sure since you've never had one before.

When you say creamy, do you mean thick? Watery?
And what kind of smell is it? Gross and fishy? Or more like sweat?

It very well could be that you are ovulating or it could be a yeast infection. Typical ovulation discharge is white and dries yellow. However, your doctor will need to check this out, especially if you are trying to get pregnant.

J_9 is 100% right. It can either be ovulation or a yeast infection... the consistency is what makes the biggest difference in which is which.
I preach about this book because it helped me:

It will help you understand and be able to tell the difference in what you're seeing. It will also help you prepare your body if you are trying to conceive.
