    Question

    I am 13 years old and have had my period three times so far. A week after I stopped, I had clear, watery discharge. It felt like I peed myself. I have been wearing liners whenever I got this stuff. Is this the right thing to do? Is the discharge normal?

    Answer

    Sounds perfectly normal and wearing a pad is a good idea. Vaginal discharge is different during the month because it is tied to our female hormones.
