strong odor, mild pain

Im 19 years old, I am a virgin and experiancing some problems. For about 9 months i hadnt had a period so i finally went to the gynocologist. He said that since i hadnt had sex he wouldnt perform a full exam so i told him i hadnt had a period and he put me on birth control pills. My period is now regular and everything has been fine.

I have been on the pill for about 6 months but after about two months after being put on the pill i noticed wet spots on my underwear. Nothing thick, nothing colored, just wet, almost like spots of urine, and a horrible smell. I change underwear at least twice a day due to the wetness and the smell, along with rinse myself off. Some days its worse then others but its almost always there. Also, some days my lower stomach has a pain in the side, usually if i use the restroom. Sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right but its usually mild and never lasts long.

My questions are:
could the pill be at all related to this?
Is the pain something unrelated? I
s there something i can do to fix the smell WITHOUT having to go to the doctor or using a douche?

Thank you very much

It could be hormones, with the pill hormones are affected and changed, try wearing a light pad just for the wetness and change it frequently, is this a constant thing or more so at a certain time before or after your period?? wondering if your ovulating at this time and that is the extra "wetness" you are noticing.

sorry I re read it again, Well if there is any kind of smell, I also noticed your subject says pain I would go and have it checked out again. Wetness is one thing, but pain and odor can possible indicate a yeast infection or something else.
