2. not really a strong odor, only when long periods between showering (when I do sports)

3. sometimes my discharge is very clear

Do I have Bacterial vaginosis?

Answer 1

It's not embarassing to call the doctor when you are trying to get your body right.  If the discharge has an odor, fishy, frothy smell, yeah go see a doctor but a discharge is normal.  You may have to shower more often.  Also your body is going through puberty, alot of hormones, it happens.  Drink plenty of water, it helps flushes the body and don't wear underwear with strong perfume detetergent.  Wash your undies and gentle clothing in a dye free deteregent.  Also try Safeguard soap.  It's an antibacterial soap. I would buy a 2 bar and see what happens in acouple of days.
