Answers:

Its discharge , its your vagina self cleaning before you have your period .
These are the different types:

White: Thick, white discharge is common at the beginning and end of your cycle. Normal white discharge is not accompanied by itching. If itching is present, thick white discharge can indicate a yeast infection.

Clear and stretchy: This is "fertile" mucous and means you are ovulating.

Clear and watery: This occurs at different times of your cycle and can be particularly heavy after exercising.

Yellow or Green: May indicate an infection, especially if thick or clumpy like cottage cheese or has a foul odor.

Brown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown.

Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test.


If you find it anoying when you get your knickers dirty , u can wear a pad.
If i were you i would carry round pads in your school bag and a spare pair of knickers , because you may be getting your period soon .

Good Luck xx



Yeah it is discharge, it's just your vagina cleaning it's self. It's normal for a lump of it to come out. Finally unless it smells bad then that should be fine although wearing a panty liner and changing it regularly will help to prevent smell.



This will happen your entire life. It's called discharge and is perfectly normal. Your lady-parts are just cleaning themselves from the inside out. If its increasing you may be getting closer to your first period :].
