    Question

    I'm 14 years old and I constantly have discharge. It's clear and sometimes white, it's almost like snot. I have it all the time, even weeks before I start my period. I don't know what it is. I'm not sexualy active, so I know it's not a disease, but I'm scared it's not normal. Please Help

    Answer

    Well it sounds perfectly normal to me, so no worries. Everyone has discharge, all the time, and it changes during the month in reaction to your hormones. Do not worry, and if you do, talk to your doctor during a visit. She will settle your fears.
