    Question

    I'm 15 and not sexualy active. I have this white stuff on the inside of my vaginal lips. It's kind of like wet toilet paper. I'm very scared because I don't know what it is.

    Answer

    Well, it could be wet toilet paper, and it is likely nothing to worry about. If you shower every day, make sure your vaginal area is clean, and if it persists, then ask your doctor to have a look.
