Within the past week or so, my vagina has felt different!. It began simply by being sore, but now it itches constantly and releases a white discharge!. I'm sexually active with my boyfriend but we're both STD-free and use protection!. I'm too embarrassed to ask my mom or friends what it could be, so you're my only hope!. Any ideas!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like a yeast infection!. Even if you weren't having sex, you could still get a yeast infection!. They are fairly common!.

Different types of infections:

Signs of yeast infections:
White, cottage cheese-like discharge
Swelling and pain around the vulva
Intense itching
For a few women, a yeast infection can go away on its own just after her period!. You can eat UNsweetened yogurt to help!. Stay away from sugar - candy, soda, alcohol, even bread as sugar feeds yeast!. You can buy over-the-counter Monistat at your local drug store or grocery store!. You and your partner can pass it back and forth!. So make sure you are done with treatment before resuming sex!.

Signs of bacterial vaginosis:
A white, gray or yellowish vaginal discharge
A fishy odor that is strongest after sex or after washing with soap
Itching or burning
Slight redness and swelling of the vagina or vulva

Signs of trichomoniasis
A watery, yellowish or greenish bubbly discharge
