vaginal discharge

Hi there, I'm a 20 yearold female. and i was at the doctor not long ago and she did a regular check on my cervic and stuff and said i have a very healthy vagina so i didnt even think to ask but now i cant ignore it. i have discharge every day that makes me feel like im wetting myself and it very unconfortable feeling. its a sort of white or clear color but sometimes when it drys it looks white or if it has been a few hours look yellow... i dont know what to think. oh and when me and my boyfriend are .. you know about to 'do it' im terribly dry down there and need to use lubricant...its very embaressing i mean im only 20, i shouldnt be dry like that down there everytime we're about to do it.
i dont have any sti's or other trouble that im aware of... i will be going to the doctor for another cervical check but i would like to have an idea before then.

is this normal? do any other women get discharge this often?is this why those really thin panty liners are madE?
ladies your feedback would be very helpful, please.

It's common to have a little bit of yeast during certain times of the month, a yeast infection is when it grows out of control. Been checked for an ectropic cervix? It's also very common to have varying amounts of discharge that could totally be normal. Yeast, is usually cottage-cheese like and may cause itching.

well i only meant cervical check as like a ladys doctor appointment. didnt realise it made much of a difference what it was called. but i already had a swab last time and she told me my vagina was very healthy, but i had a wee bit of thrush.... maybe the thrush just never went away. its deffo not an sti.

they should prob do a swab to check u havent got an STI or infection like thrush. creamy discharge can be a symptom of either. probably isnt normal but probably not related to cervix, its not another cervical check u need.
