Question
I am 16 years old and have had sex twice. It has been half a year since the last time. Just a few days ago my discharge changed and around my vagina there are little clumps of discharge. There is no itching or burning just this. Should I tell my mom and doctor?
Answer
If you are worried about a sexually transmitted infection, make an appointment and get screened. Talk to your mom if you think she will be supportive. Good luck!
