Thread: Excesive discharge,bad odors and periods,aswell as cysts on ovaries

Hi there, I am 19 and for the past few years I have had many problems with my periods,odor,and discharge.Every so often I go a few weeks or months being late for my periods.I have had a bad smell coming from my vagina , it never seems to go away, my bf notices it, and I feel as though so does everyone else around me, its the most embaressing smell especially because it never goes away.My discharge is thick and goopy white and like the odor, it never slacks up.As I mentioned I have been this way for a good 4-5 years, it has progressively gotten worse.

As of the past year these problems have become untollerable.My periods have never been so..off balance.My periods last mostly 8-11 days at a time.Sometimes I have 2 periods in the same month,even within a week of each other.I have had my periods last up to a full 2 weeks on occasion.Its usually heavy aswell.Back in December I started having pains in my uterus.The pains went on for a week, people kept telling me its probably just gas but it wasn't , one morning I woke up screaming in pain.So I went to the ER and found out a cyst had ruptured on my ovary.The discharge and odor are still about the same as always (irritating and stressful). I simply use water to clean in that area because I know using douches and soap will kill the good bacteria in the vagina.

I'm not saying that is it ovarian cancer however..my grandmother and my great-great grandmother both had ovarian cancer and I know that it is hereditary aswell.These problems started before I even had my first real kiss so I strongly,strongly doubt that this has to do with sexually transmitted diseases.

If anyone has any insight ,had the same problems, or anything to say at all that would help.Please let me know.This is all I have until I am able to get health insurance.

I eat mostly fruit and veggies over anything.I have been dieting myself that way for a long time.Its not helping.I will have to see what I can do about care products.Just really scared of it getting worse then it is now.Can't wait until I get my insurance and go to a Dr.
