    Vaginal dryness and unusual discharge
    I have had this prolem for at least a year now because it won't go away and I am unsure of what it could be.I have a range of symptoms including constant dryness of the outside of my vagina, even when sexually aroused I have unusual dyrness. I am only 18 thoguh so it cannot be menopause. Althoguh dry, I do have extremyl excessive amounts of thic, clear and white discharge druign my period but that is not odoress howveer there is a reamaing pale yellowish thic dischrge that ahs a strogn odour and clings to the sin. This really concerns me as I have no idea what it could be. My labia minoras also get quite red and in my opinion swollen and there is an itchyness around my vagina. This itchyness and soreness has moved down tomy anus slightly and althoguh not feeling sore it looks really red inside.my periods are also soemtimes irregular as well. I make sure I shower daily and dotn use any soaps on my vagina only water. This problem occurred a while before I had any oral sex and durign the times I ve had proper sex it has felt uncomfortab;ly dry isnide. Please pelase help as I've tried thrush treatments three times now and I feel so disgusting and uncomfortabel with my boyfreind touchign me with this problem. Please pelase does nayone know what's worng with me? :confused:

    I agree that you should see the doctor. Don't feel embarrassed about it. Believe me the ob-gyns have heard it all and seen it all, and I'm sure they see people with your problem all the time, so it's nothing to feel embarrassed about. You need to make sure something serious isn't wrong and there is no need for you to suffer from this when a doctor could probably help you fix it quickly.

    Do you go for annual women's health exams? It's so important to get those at least once a year once you are sexually active, and more often if you develop a problem like you described. Mention the irregular periods to the doctor also. I hope you are better soon!

    I would call and talk to him if he was supossed to get a hold of you. See what the swab showed. If it were me, I would probably go to a different doctor and get a second opinion on this. Maybe there is something else they can do for you.

    Hi, I went for months with similar symptoms and nothing more than a shrug from my doctor, last week I went to a different surgery and he knew exactly what it was - a pelvic infection. Prescribed anti-biotics and that was that. Can be hard to get rid of though as the infection spreads further and further, to bladder etc... ask your Dr.
