White discharge & bumps around clitoris
Ever since 3rd grade or so (17 year old now), I've noticed that I've been slowly developing these "bumps" around my clitoris. They don't itch, hurt or anything related to that. Another thing is, that a white discharge appears there every night before I shower. There also tends to be a white discharge on my clitoris. Recently, I've realized that the white "thing" on the clitoris doesn't go away anymore and can't be washed off anymore. But nevertheless, nothing itches or hurts.
Is this a reason to be worried about? Should I see the doctor immediately? As I've mentioned already, it's been like this ever since 3rd grade...so I'm not exactly sure if it's a serious condition.
Could it be a STD? I'm not exactly sure how I could have gotten one in 3rd grade..but could it be one?
I'm not sure if this is relevant, but my period does not have a very regular cycle.

Oh, okay! Thank you for commenting, I really appreciate it :) Guess I'll go see my doctor then
