Is it normal that i discharge so much and it smells bad in my underwear?

I feel like my vagina is constantly wet and I always have this discharge in my underwear either white or yellow and it smells bad to me and I feel like everyone else can smell it. And it makes me uncomfortable having anyone go down there because I'm scared it's not normal. HELPPP.

    Infections like bacterial vaginosis are actually really common and match your symptoms ..
    It's basically a imbalance of bacteria down there there ..
    You can get creams and gels or antibiotics to clear it up ..
    Just try not to wash down there with normal soaps/shower gels as it screws up the natural balance, there's special washes you can get instead ..
    Also, don't actually wash the inside of your vagina, that can cause infections like this ..

      Thank you, it just bothers me because I feel like it's been like this for awhile, like as long as I can remember at least 2 years. And it's especially bad when I wear thongs or lacey underwear. I've just always been shy to say anything hoping it was normal and every girl my age went through it but now I'm starting to feel differently and like it's not normal, and it makes me really self conscious. So I'm not sure if I should tell my mom to take me to my doctor?

        I wouldn't recommend lace either. Why would you even wear it unless your a model? It can be really uncomfortable and increase risk of irratation

        It's probably best to get checked out because we can't diagnose you on here :P
        But it does sound like bv to me, which is really common ..
        Not sure where you are but in the UK you can get special gels and creams for bv without a prescription, from like boots or even the supermarket ..
        If that doesn't help I'd definitely get checked out, bv can last for years without treatment ..
        Either way I'd tell your mum, chances are she's had it before too ..

          Can you get that just out of no where? Or do you have to be sexually active to get something like that? Because just throwing it out there in case it changes anything, I'm not nor ever have been sexually active.

            Nah in the UK anybody can buy it!
            Doesn't matter how old you are or whether you are sexually active ..
            Here you can just buy it like you would buy a sandwich .. no questions asked ..
            But if you'd prefer antibiotics or want a proper diagnosis you'll have to ask your mum to take you to a doctor ..
