    Default Am I worrying too much?

    Okay, here I go again with the worrying.
    Lately my boyfriend has mentioned a smell down there. It's not fishy or anything like that.. I can't even describe it. I think it smells like normal.. only stronger? Maybe? I clean down there with a soapy washcloth every time I take a shower (which is daily!!)
    I've had maybe a LITTLE more discharge than normal, and when I do, its the consistancy of egg whites. I have no itching or pain whatsoever. About a month or so ago, give or take a week, I got over a UTI with antibiotics.
    I guess what I'm asking is... what could this be, if anything? I guess the only reason I ask is because my boyfriend said its started to bother him since its stronger. He said he notices it gets stronger around my period, but I finished up my period a week ago.
    Am I just paranoid, and its something that comes and goes?

    Okay well I just finally figured out how to describe the smell. Its almost acidic.. but barely. Does that mean the pH level is off?

    Your PH levels may be off. Make sure you wear cotton-only underwear. Most importantly, you need to use fragrance free soap x

    Okay I just discovered that my discharge is turning more clumpy and white, rather than clear and thin... =P This mean anything in particular?

    Oh I'm dumb. I do believe I have myself my third yeast infection. Wahoooooo.
    My first two were a while ago from taking antiobiotics. And when I took the strong antiobiotics for my UTI, I forgot how sensitive I can be to them. So I think that just killed all my healthy bacteria [AGAIN!] and viola, here I am....

    How often do you get yeast infections?
