    Do I have some kind of a urine infection?
    I leak a lot during the day and sometimes it's clear or sometimes it's white and creamy. I don't know what it is. And it happens daily not just like after or before I get my period but daily. I also think I'm peeing out my vagina, because I have watched the pee come out and that's where it is coming from. Also tampons are hard for me to wear.

    Your urine comes from your urethra not your vagina.
    If you are sexually active you should be tested for an S.T.D. and even if you are not ,you should still see a gynecologist.
    Untreated infections can affect your future fertility if left unchecked.

    Although urine doesn't come from your vagina, it does come out of your vagina.

    Discharge is normal, white or clear depending on the time of the month is normal for all women.

    Tampons, well, what size are you using? Do you know how to insert a tampon properly?

    You need to talk to your mom about this.

    Urine comes out of a hole called the urethra. It is the small hole above the vagina.

    I hate to disagree hon ,you know I love you but your urethra is in front of your vagina,not in it.

    Yes, it does, I know, but I don't think the OP realizes this, or knows the difference.

    I've read some of her other posts. She's young, she probably has no idea what's normal or not normal where her body is concerned.

    Besides, it's impossible for urine to actually "come out of your vagina" is has to come out of the urethra.

    Am I making any sense? I don't think I'm really conveying what I'm trying to say. :(

    I know. Darnit, I'm not explaining this properly.

    Maybe it would help if the OP told us what exactly she meant when she said that she thinks urine is coming out of her vagina. :)

    There is a condition called a fistula where urine can appear to come out of the vagina but it is a medical problem,usually happening to women who have given birth.
    She should probably take your advice and speak to her Mom anyway.Thats what is her best option.
