    Question

    I've been having vaginal discharge for a while. Is this a sign that my period will start soon? Also, my discharge is white/clear and it smells kind of bad. Do I have a yeast infection? My breasts are 30 A. They're really small. Is this normal for a 13 year old?

    Answer

    The only advice on your breast size I can give is to talk to your family members on both sides - your genetic donors - your experience is likely to be similar to theirs. About your period - it usually starts about a year after you start to get peach fuzz and breasts grow - no crystal ball to know exactly when it will start.
